Looks like we should use dw_hdmi_bind() here to make unbind -> bind work.
But can't get the encoder pointer. the encoder pointer is from lcdif_drv.c,
the probe sequence of lcdif, pvi, dw_hdmi should be dw_hdmi first, then pvi,
then lcdif, because current implementation in lcdif and pvi driver.
Should the lcdif and pvi driver be modified to use component helper?
This seems out of the scope of this patch set.
