I believe the CSI2-RX subsystem uses the same D-PHY IP core, but a
confirmation would be nice.

The DSI output will likely often be connected to a DSI panel, but it
could also be connected to another bridge, for instance to an ADV7533
DSI-to-HDMI bridge. In that case an HDMI connector needs to be created,
not a DSI connector. This is why we are moving towards a model where
bridge drivers only handle the bridge device, and the drm_encoder and
drm_connector is created externally, but the display controller driver.
The drm_bridge_connector_init() helper can automate connector creation
for a chain of bridges.
