Yes, you are correct the detach of bridge is being taking care via
drm_encoder_cleanup. This patch exported explicitly, since we need to
taken care bridge detach during unbind even exynos_drm_dsi in other
patch seems using detach by explicitly pointing. so I think the better
approach is to use drm_encoder_cleanup in unbind, what do you say?

Jagan.
