devm_drm_bridge_alloc() is the new API to be used for allocating (and
partially initializing) a private driver struct embedding a struct
drm_bridge.
For many drivers having a simple code flow in the probe function, this
commit does a mass conversion automatically with the following semantic
patch. The changes have been reviewed manually for correctness as well as
to find any false positives.
The patch has been applied with the explicit exclusion of bridge/panel.c,
handled by a separate patch.
After applying the semantic patch, manually fixed these issues:
- 4 drivers need ERR_CAST() instead of PTR_ERR() as the function calling
devm_drm_bridge_alloc() returns a pointer
- re-added empty lines and comments that the script had removed but that
should stay

[Luca: fixed trivial patch conflict in adv7511_drv.c while applying]

The drm_bridge structure contains an encoder pointer that is widely used
by bridge drivers. This pattern is largely documented as deprecated in
other KMS entities for atomic drivers.
However, one of the main use of that pointer is done in attach to just
call drm_bridge_attach on the next bridge to add it to the bridge list.
While this dereferences the bridge->encoder pointer, it's effectively
the same encoder the bridge was being attached to.
We can make it more explicit by adding the encoder the bridge is
attached to to the list of attach parameters. This also removes the need
to dereference bridge->encoder in most drivers.

The DT of_device.h and of_platform.h date back to the separate
of_platform_bus_type before it as merged into the regular platform bus.
As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they
"temporarily" include each other. They also include platform_device.h
and of.h. As a result, there's a pretty much random mix of those include
files used throughout the tree. In order to detangle these headers and
replace the implicit includes with struct declarations, users need to
explicitly include the correct includes.

Add driver for Lontium LT9211 Single/Dual-Link DSI/LVDS or Single DPI to
Single-link/Dual-Link DSI/LVDS or Single DPI bridge. This chip is highly
capable at converting formats, but sadly it is also highly undocumented.
This driver is written without any documentation from Lontium and based
only on shreds of information available in various obscure example codes,
hence long runs of unknown register patches and lengthy delays in various
places. Whichever register meaning could be divined from its behavior has
at least a comment around it.
Currently the only mode tested is Single-link DSI to Single-link LVDS.
Dual-link LVDS might work as well, the register programming is in place,
but is untested.
