Hi,

This series fixes so HDMI through the sii9234 MHL chip works when
cable is hotplugged, by making the MHL chip use extcon cable detection
functions. Patch 3, that actually implements the extcon parts, is heavily
inspired by commit 688838442147 ("drm/bridge/sii8620: use micro-USB
cable detection logic to detect MHL") by Maciej Purski.

Before these changes, HDMI only worked if cable was plugged in before
booting. If no cable was connected, then wlr-randr still showed HDMI
as connected, with 0x0 px, which confused at least some UIs (phosh)
and caused problems:

Tested on exynos4412-i9305.

Best regards,
Henrik Grimler
