This is the new API for allocating DRM bridges.
These two drivers are tangled together by the ldb_add_bridge_helper(), so
they are converted at once.
They also have a similar design, each embedding an array of channels in
their main struct, and each channel embeds a drm_bridge. This prevents
dynamic, refcount-based deallocation of the bridges.
To make the new, dynamic bridge allocation possible:
* change the array of channels into an array of channel pointers
* allocate each channel using devm_drm_bridge_alloc()
* adapt ldb_add_bridge_helper() to not set the funcs pointer
(now done by devm_drm_bridge_alloc())
* adapt the code wherever using the channels

The drm_bridge structure contains an encoder pointer that is widely used
by bridge drivers. This pattern is largely documented as deprecated in
other KMS entities for atomic drivers.
However, one of the main use of that pointer is done in attach to just
call drm_bridge_attach on the next bridge to add it to the bridge list.
While this dereferences the bridge->encoder pointer, it's effectively
the same encoder the bridge was being attached to.
We can make it more explicit by adding the encoder the bridge is
attached to to the list of attach parameters. This also removes the need
to dereference bridge->encoder in most drivers.

The checks on the existence of bridge->encoder in the implementation of
drm_bridge_funcs::attach() is not necessary, as it has already been checked
in the drm_bridge_attach() function call by previous bridge or KMS driver.
The drm_bridge_attach() will quit with a negative error code returned if
it fails for some reasons, hence, it is guaranteed that the .encoder member
of the drm_bridge instance is not NULL when various i.MX specific bridge
attach functions are called.
Remove the redundant checking codes "if (!bridge->encoder) { ... }".

With CONFIG_DRM_IMX8QM_LDB=m and CONFIG_DRM_IMX8QXP_LDB=y (or vice
versa), imx-ldb-helper.o is linked to a module and also to vmlinux
even though the expected CFLAGS are different between builtins and
modules.
This is the same situation as fixed by commit 637a642f5c ("zstd:
Fixing mixed module-builtin objects").
Split imx-ldb-helper.c into a separate module.

drm_crtc.h has no need for linux/media-bus-format.h, so don't
include it. Avoids useless rebuilds of the entire universe when
touching linux/media-bus-format.h.
Quite a few placs do currently depend on linux/media-bus-format.h
without actually including it directly. All of those need to be
fixed up.
v2: Deal with ingenic as well
v3: Fix up mxsfb and remaining parts of imx

This patch adds a helper to support LDB drm bridge drivers for
i.MX SoCs. Helper functions supported by this helper should
implement common logics for all LDB modules embedded in i.MX SoCs.
