DRM bridges are not visible to the userspace and it may not be
immediately clear if the chain is somehow constructed incorrectly. I
have had two separate instances of a bridge driver failing to do a
drm_bridge_attach() call, resulting in the bridge connector not being
part of the chain. In some situations this doesn't seem to cause issues,
but it will if DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag is used.
Add a debugfs file to print the bridge chains. For me, on this TI AM62
based platform, I get the following output:
encoder[39]
bridge[0] type: 0, ops: 0x0
bridge[1] type: 0, ops: 0x0, OF: /bus@f0000/i2c@20000000/dsi@e:toshiba,tc358778
bridge[2] type: 0, ops: 0x3, OF: /bus@f0000/i2c@20010000/hdmi@48:lontium,lt8912b
bridge[3] type: 11, ops: 0x7, OF: /hdmi-connector:hdmi-connector
