Maybe it is a bikeshedding, but wouldn't be better to call
drm_bridge_mode_valid from drm_encoder_mode_valid, in general call all
bridge related stuff from corresponding encoder stuff?
This is more question about role of encoder->bridge, should it be
treated as encoder's extension, or as 1st class citizen in drm?

Another concern is about order of calls, it is from sink to source, to
keep it consistent bridge should be called before encoder, am I right?
Beside this:
