Aren't there drivers around which use dw_hdmi and which are still not yet
atomic? This would break them. I think we neeed two connector_func tables
and dw_hdmi needs to check for DRIVER_ATOMIC at runtime and pick the right
version.

The larger problem here is that "who should register the drm_connector" is
a bit an unsolved problem, since both the bridge and the driver should be
able to customize/adjust the drm_connector at the end of a bridge chain.
This here is just another example of this problem.
