I tried that, but I had trouble with the cleanup side.

In the fixup patch I attached in my reply to Maxim I used 
drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge() + drm_panel_bridge_add_typed(), and on 
bridge_detach callback I used drm_panel_bridge_remove() (if there is a 
panel). This worked for me, but it does feel like a bit too much work 
for a driver to do.
