Thanks, your patch seems correct, but your subject line should mention
the driver you are changing. You can use 
'git log --oneline -- <filename>'
to ensure which prefix is used for that file.

Without that your subject line would suggest you are changing the
drm_bridge core or doing a change affecting several drivers. That would
be misleading to reviewers receiving your patch as well as when looking
at the git history in case the patch gets applied (because the e-mail
Subject will be used as the git commit message title.

Best regards,
Luca
