As of now, we can have only one bridge hanging off the encoder. With this patch, we allow multiple bridges to hang onto the same encoder with the use of a simple next_bridge ptr.

The drm core calls bridge->funcs for the first bridge which is attached to it, and its upto the individual bridge drivers to call bridge->funcs for the next bridge in the chain.

IMO, we should let whoever is spawning the bridges chain them together, instead of passing encoder in init().

that plus, might be a good time to start adding some static-inline helper fxns for fxn ptr calls like we have for drm_panel.. not a big deal, but I guess it would be a good time to do it now before we start adding chained bridge calls in all the bridges.

Right, I will try to add a few: -- to update next_bridge ptr and form a chain. -- to call pre_enable, enable, disable and post_disable for the next bridge in the list.
