I think conceptually this is checked at the wrong place, and I think also misnamed
a bit. The ->owner is essentially the struct device (and its associated
driver) that provides the drm_bridge. As such it should be filled out
already at drm_bridge_add() time, and I think the check should be in
there. For driver-internal bridges it might make sense to also check this
here, not sure. Or just require all bridges get added.

Wrt the name, I think we should call this pdev or something. ->owner
usually means the module owner. I think in other subsystems ->dev is used,
but in drm we use ->dev for the drm_device pointer, so totally different
thing. pdev = physical device is the best I came up with. Better
suggestions very much welcome.
