Hi Daniel,

Thank you for the patch.

I'm confused, I don't really see how that's related to mhl.h. The header
defines constants and structures related to the MHL (Mobile
High-Definition Link) protocol, which is an industry standard. If you
want to move it out of include/drm/bridge/ to eventually remove that
directory, I think it should be renamted to include/drm/drm_mhl.h.

The reason why we have shared headers for those is because they're IP
cores integrated with different glue layers in different SoCs. There's
one driver for the IP core itself, and SoC-specific glue drivers that
need to provide the IP core drivers with data and callbacks, defined in
shared headers. Granted, there's also data in those headers that are
only internal to the IP core drivers, and that should be moved out, but
for the interface header, include/drm/bridge/ doesn't seem to be a bad
location to me.
