Hi Dmitry,

Thanks for the quick reviews.

The SII902x HDMI bridge driver wasn't working properly with drivers that
use the newer bridge connector architecture with the
DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag, like TIDSS. This caused HDMI audio to
fail since the driver wasn't properly setting the sink_is_hdmi flag when
the bridge was attached without a connector since .get_modes() is never
called in this case. Fix it by setting sink_is_hdmi flag when reading
the EDID block itself.

The EDID read / free can also be dropped, they don't serve any purpose
now.


Sorry I did not understand this clearly.
I have already removed drm_edid_connector_update from sii902x_get_modes since now it is taken care inside sii902x_edid_read itself which is also called by .get_modes (sii902x_get_modes).

We still need to read edid inside sii902x_get_modes as for the legacy driver scenario which don't use DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR as in those cases .get_modes will get called but bridge function .edid_read won't be called. Also as the caller is supposed to free the edid allocated so I have preserved drm_edid_free call in .get_modes as drm_edid_connector_add_modes is allocating a new drm_edid pointer already.

Kindly let me know if there is a misunderstanding here.
