Do not use drm_bridge_chain_enable(). If you really need to do this hack
use the atomic variant. The one you use here is about to be deleted.

That said - I expect this to be a workaround for some design issue.
One bridge driver should not need to power on another bridge, the
infrastructure should take care.
I know we did not make kmb_dsi a proper bridge, but this may be the time
to do it so we avoid such a workaround and the driver will then be able
to use the bridge infrastructure as it is supposed to do.
