[PATCH v3 00/12] drm: Fix EDID reading on ti-sn65dsi86

The primary goal of this series is to try to properly fix EDID reading
for eDP panels using the ti-sn65dsi86 bridge.

Previously we had a patch that added EDID reading but it turned out
not to work at bootup. This caused some extra churn at bootup as we
tried (and failed) to read the EDID several times and also ended up
forcing us to use the hardcoded mode at boot. With this patch series I
believe EDID reading is reliable at boot now and we never use the
hardcoded mode.

This series is the logical successor to the 3-part series containing
the patch ("drm/bridge: ti-sn65dsi86: Properly get the EDID, but only
if refclk") [1] though only one actual patch is the same between the
two.

This series starts out with some general / obvious fixes and moves on
to some more specific and maybe controversial ones. I wouldn't object
to some of the earlier ones landing if they look ready.

This patch was developed against drm-misc-next on a
sc7180-trogdor-lazor device. To get things booting for me, I had to
use Stephen's patch [2] to keep from crashing but otherwise all the
patches I needed were here.

Primary change between v2 and v3 is to stop doing the EDID caching in
the core. I also added Andrzej's review tags.

Changes in v3:
- Removed "NOTES" from commit message.
- Rebased now that we're not moving EDID caching to the core.
- Separating out patch to block AUX channel when not powered.
- Added note about boot speed implications.
- ("Fail aux transfers right away if not powered") split out for v3.

Changes in v2:
- Removed 2nd paragraph in commit message.
