drm/bridge: analogix_dp: Handle HPD notification from downstream bridge

This commit adds an hpd_notify_mode to analogix_dp when a downstream bridge
in the chain provides HPD notifications without detection. In this mode, the
driver caches the connection state from the .hpd_notify callback, mutes and
skips initializing native HPD interrupts, and returns connector->status from
analogix_dp_bridge_detect().

[Severity: Medium]
Can returning connector->status directly from analogix_dp_bridge_detect()
cause regressions before the first HPD notification arrives or when connector
forcing is used via sysfs?

First, drm_connector_init_only() initializes connector->status to
connector_status_unknown. In rockchip_drm_bind() and exynos_drm_bind(),
drm_kms_helper_poll_init() calls display_connector_hpd_enable(), which only
schedules conn->hpd_work asynchronously via schedule_work(&conn->hpd_work)
(and when drm_kms_helper.poll=0 or with bridges like aux-hpd-bridge, no
initial HPD work is scheduled). When drm_client_setup() ->
drm_client_modeset_probe() -> drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes() (or a
userspace DRM_IOCTL_MODE_GETCONNECTOR call) runs before conn->hpd_work
completes, analogix_dp_bridge_detect() returns connector_status_unknown.

In drivers/gpu/drm/drm_probe_helper.c:drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes():

        if (connector->status == connector_status_disconnected) {
                ...
                goto exit;
        }

        count = drm_helper_probe_get_modes(connector);

        if (count == 0 && (connector->status == connector_status_connected ||
                           connector->status == connector_status_unknown)) {
                count = drm_add_modes_noedid(connector, 1024, 768);

Because the status is connector_status_unknown instead of
connector_status_disconnected, drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes() adds
fallback no-EDID modes and drm_client attempts to enable the disconnected
display. In analogix_dp_bridge_atomic_enable() -> analogix_dp_set_bridge(),
analogix_dp_detect_hpd() then checks analogix_dp_get_plug_in_status(), where
dp->connection_notified is still false, timing out after 5 retries (~500ms)
and logging an error.

Second, if a user forces the connector state via /sys/class/drm/.../status,
drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes() sets connector->status to the
forced value without calling .detect_ctx() or .hpd_notify(), leaving
dp->connection_notified out of sync (so forcing "on" still fails in
analogix_dp_get_plug_in_status()). When the user later writes "detect" to
restore normal detection, status_store() clears connector->force while
connector->status still holds the forced state. Then
drm_bridge_connector_detect_ctx() runs:

        if (detect) {
                status = detect->funcs->detect(detect, connector);
                ...
                drm_bridge_connector_hpd_notify(connector, status);
        }

Because analogix_dp_bridge_detect() returns the stale forced
connector->status, drm_bridge_connector_hpd_notify() passes that forced
status back into analogix_dp_bridge_notify(), overwriting
dp->connection_notified and leaving the connector stuck in the forced state
until a physical HPD edge occurs.

Would it be better to avoid setting DRM_BRIDGE_OP_DETECT on this bridge when
downstream HPD is used, or have analogix_dp_bridge_detect() return a valid
connected/disconnected status without letting the detect path's
drm_bridge_connector_hpd_notify() call overwrite the state from downstream
HPD notifications?
