Yes this is causing issues for me now !. The patch 4/4 adds support in
msm/dsi but causes regression on qualcomm laptops with ti-sn65dsi86 eDP
bridge. I tried to fix that up with changes like Laurent has done for
adv7511, but it hasnt worked yet for me (remote debug of this is bit
painful)

So I am going to drop patch 4 from this series and add support for both
DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR set and cleared (like we have in adv7511)
so that it can work in both cases, while I fix all bridge uses of
msm/dsi and then we can drop these. Does that sound okay to you folks?
