Thanks for posting the changes.

I dont have major concerns on the series as such apart from minor 
comments which i will post in a day or two
but I will check and get back if this has been validated on sc7280 
without any concerns.

One question i had is not directly related to this series but related to 
multi-DP in general.
Does audio work fine across both the DPs when both are connected?

The reason I ask this question is that, I dont know how two hdmi-codec 
instances are handled today.
So we will register twice with hdmi-codec so there should be two audio 
streams.

But I am not sure if this works correctly in todays design with 
hdmi-codec.

Any chance you had validated this?
