This series is based on master branch of Linus tree at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
This series has been in the mailing lists for months and have been tested
by many people. What else is missing before it can be merged?

It would be great to have proper display support on platforms that have a
eDP to LVDS bridge chip (e.g: Snow, Peach Pit and Spring Chromebooks) and
everything is in place but this series which had been missing many kernel
releases already.

Changes since V7:
        -- Address comments from Tomi and Laurent:
                -- Use videoports and endpoints to represent the
                connection between
                
                   encoder, bridge and the panel, instead of using
                   phandles.
        
        -- Address comments from Daniel:
                -- Make the patch description more descriptive.
                -- remove device pointer from drm_bridge, and just use
                
                   device_node instead.
                
                -- don't pass encoder pointer to bridge_attach.
        
        -- Address comments from Sean Paul:
                -- Remove bridge from mode_config, and pull out
                drm_bridge
                
                   functions from drm_crtc.c to drm_bridge.c
Tomi and Laurent,

You asked Ajay to change his series to use the video port and enpoints DT
bindings instead of phandles, could you please review his latest version?

I guess is now too late for 3.19 since we are in the middle of the merge
window but it would be great if this series can at least made it to 3.20.
I don't have time to review the series in details right now, but I'm happy 
with the DT bindings, and have no big issue with the rest of the patches. I 
don't really like the of_drm_find_bridge() concept introduced in 03/14 but I 
won't nack it given lack of time to implement an alternative proposal. It's an 
internal API, it can always be reworked later anyway.
