The DP encoder is currently modelled as a DRM encoder and DRM connector. This doesn't support system configurations where the DP encoder is driven by the FPGA programmable logic, using the live video input to the DP subsystem. To enable such use cases, we need to model the encoder as a DRM bridge. As a first step, create a DRM bridge in the DP encoder driver. Move and delegate the implementation of the DRM encoder and connector operations to the bridge to prepare for the transition. The bridge will be registered with the DRM core as a separate change.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
