When the dw-hdmi bridge is in first place of the bridge chain, this

component.

Since introduction of display-connector, negotiation was broken since
the dw-hdmi negotiation code only worked when the dw-hdmi bridge was
in last position of the bridge chain or behind another bridge also
supporting input & output format negotiation.

Commit 0656d1285b79 ("drm/bridge: display-connector: implement bus fmts callbacks")

I think this is the wrong hash. Is 7cd70656d128 the actual hash?

Wow indeed, thanks for checking...


was introduced to make negotiation work again by making display-connector
act as a pass-through concerning input & output format negotiation.

But in the case where the dw-hdmi is single in the bridge chain, for
example on Renesas SoCs, with the display-connector bridge the dw-hdmi
is no more single, breaking output format.

This hash too.

There are two checkstyle issues apart from the above mentioned hash
issues, and I think we can ignore those. With the above mentioned
issue fixed, feel free to add my r-b.

Thanks, I'll fix & resend with your r-b.
