Not all SoCs that use dw-hdmi also use the dw-hdmi CEC implementation. Some use their own implementation (amlogic). So by implementing the cec-notifier in the dw-hdmi driver and keeping dw-hdmi CEC separate you can easily choose whether or not you want to use this CEC driver or another SoC CEC driver.
