This is the wrong commit, the driver was just in a different place
before that, and the bug was already present in commit 0647e7dd3f7ab
("drm/bridge: Add Analogix anx78xx support").

Neither of these should be needed, as the driver only works with
CONFIG_OF anyway.

Agreed, removing the #ifdef checks and the of_match_ptr()
wrapper is the right solution here. I see similar things
in other bridge drivers that could be changed at the same
time:

$ git grep of_match_ptr drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/analogix/analogix-anx6345.c:                .of_match_table = of_match_ptr(anx6345_match_table),
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/analogix/analogix-anx78xx.c:                .of_match_table = of_match_ptr(anx78xx_match_table),
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/cadence/cdns-mhdp8546-core.c:            .of_match_table = of_match_ptr(mhdp_ids),
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/chrontel-ch7033.c:               .of_match_table = of_match_ptr(ch7033_dt_ids),
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/sil-sii8620.c:           .of_match_table = of_match_ptr(sii8620_dt_match),
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/ti-tfp410.c:             .of_match_table = of_match_ptr(tfp410_match),

The other ones are even worse because they use of_match_ptr()
without the corresponding #ifdef around the match table, so
the of_match_ptr() does not even have the effect of saving a few
bytes of .data segment.
