drm/bridge: ti-sn65dsi86: Don't read EDID blob over DDC
This is really just a revert of commit 58074b08 ("drm/bridge: ti-sn65dsi86: Read EDID blob over DDC"), resolving conflicts. The old code failed to read the EDID properly in a very important case: before the bridge's pre_enable() was called. The way things need to work: 1. Read the EDID. 2. Based on the EDID, decide on video settings and pixel clock. 3. Enable the bridge w/ the desired settings. The way things were working: 1. Try to read the EDID but fail; fall back to hardcoded values. 2. Based on hardcoded values, decide on video settings and pixel clock. 3. Enable the bridge w/ the desired settings. 4. Try again to read the EDID, it works now! 5. Realize that the hardcoded settings weren't quite right. 6. Disable / reenable the bridge w/ the right settings. The reasons for the failures were twofold: a) Since we never ran the bridge chip's pre-enable then we never set the bit to ignore HPD. This meant the bridge chip didn't even _try_ to go out on the bus and communicate with the panel. b) Even if we fixed things to ignore HPD, the EDID still wouldn't read if the panel wasn't on. Instead of reverting the code, we could fix it to set the HPD bit and also power on the panel. However, it also works nicely to just let the panel code read the EDID. Now that we've split the driver up we can expose the DDC AUX channel bus to the panel node. The panel can take charge of reading the EDID. NOTE: in order for things to work, anyone that needs to read the EDID will need to instantiate their panel using the new DP AUX bus (AKA by listing their panel under the "aux-bus" node of the bridge chip in the device tree). In the future if we want to use the bridge chip to provide a full external DP port (which won't have a panel) then we will have to conditinally add EDID reading back in.
