Thanks Neil!
I haven't been able to completely understand your concern above, but
here is what I was able to catch. Let me know if I missed something.
Are you concerned that since dw-hdmi (drm/bridge/synopsis/dw-hdmi.c) has
10+ output formats to offer, all of them won't be negotiated against the
dw-hdmi's get_input_fmt(), but just the first output_fmt?
Because the propagate_bus_fmt() API can only pass one format at a time?
> a bridge before depends on the display support,
Also, could you help me with what you mean here by 'display support'?
