Nikolaus,

Sorry, I forgot the list on my last message. However, one thing I wanted to 
add was about the DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag...

Apparently, the "new" model for display drivers according to drivers/gpu/drm/
drm_bridge.c is that they create their own connector to refer to the chain of 
bridges.

I honestly think that a few diagrams and not having to do object-oriented 
programming the hard way would really help make this a lot clearer.
