There seems to always be some sort of contention about those being bridge 
drivers - I think I remember Thierry speaking up about that. But I don't 
remember if any different solution was suggested.

Also as we have seen with current shared IPs (dw-hdmi + analogix-dp) there 
are always implementation-specific parts and deciding which needs to land 
where is difficult without the secondary user present.

The first iterations where using a bridge-driver-base for it but I guess it 
was to much hassle without seeing another user on the horizon.

I guess, the second user now gets to do the generalization ;-)
