I've been doing some testing with my Khadas VIM2 board (amlogic SoC).

It's a bit unusual since it uses the Synopsys bridge, but not the Synopsys
CEC driver (it has its own meson cec driver).

The first thing I noticed is that I did not get any connector info.
I think that the root cause of that is that you forgot that there are
several drm drivers that call cec_notifier_get() instead of cec_notifier_get_conn().

I think all those calls to cec_notifier_get() in drm drivers should be replaced
by cec_notifier_get_conn() where the second argument is NULL, but the third argument
should contain valid connector info.

A quick grep gives me the following drivers that need work:

drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/synopsys/dw-hdmi.c
drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_hdmi.c
drivers/gpu/drm/i2c/tda998x_drv.c
drivers/gpu/drm/sti/sti_hdmi.c
drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/output.c

The second thing I noticed is that patch 2 gave me a new kernel warning, but
I'll do some more testing for that and reply to patch 2/3 once I know more.

Regards,

	Hans
