Please note that chaining of bridges doesn't work well if multiple
bridges in the chain try to create a connector. This is why a
DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag has been added, with a helper to
create a connector for a chain of bridges (drm_bridge_connector_init()).
This won't play well with the component framework. I would recommend
using the of_drm_find_bridge() instead in the rockchip driver, and
deprecating dw_mipi_dsi_bind().
