Actually, I found that hdmi-connector might not have been available because
CONFIG_DRM_DISPLAY_CONNECTOR was not enabled. Rectifying this, the connector
does get detected and enabled. However, the Synopsys driver remains unaware of
it, and so the bridge type in the Synopsys driver remains unset.
I do see that the connector sets the type on a bridge in its own private
structure, so there would be a need to propagate this type to the actual
bridge. In other words, what the connector does is distinct from the Synopsys
driver which acts as the bridge with regard to the Ingenic driver.
Perhaps the Synopsys driver should set the connector's bridge as the next
bridge, or maybe something is supposed to discover that the connector may act
as (or provide) a bridge after the Synopsys driver in the chain and then back-
propagate the bridge type along the chain.

Interestingly, with the connector driver present, these sysfs entries no
longer appear.

I had to specify -M ingenic-drm as well, but here you go...

Yes, I discovered that CONFIG_FB was not enabled, so I did so.

There will be other things to verify in the Ingenic driver. As noted many
months ago, colour depth information has to be set in the DMA descriptors and
not the control register, but we are managing to do this successfully, as far
as I can tell, although there is always the potential for error.
