Several USB-C controller drivers have already implemented the DP HPD
bridge function provided by aux-hpd-bridge.c, but there are still
some USB-C controller driver that have not yet implemented it.

This patch implements a generic DP HPD bridge based on aux-hpd-bridge.c,
so that other USB-C controller drivers don't need to implement it again.

You don't need to depend on DRM_BRIDGE separately, but do you really
need a separate module for this in the first place?

Instead, why not just make that a part of aux-hpd-bridge
conditionally:

ifneq ($(CONFIG_TYPEC),)
         aux-hpd-bridge-y        += aux-hpd-typec-dp-bridge.o
endif

Oh, I did consider that! But I noticed that aux-hpd-bridge.c contains the 
following statement module_auxiliary_driver(drm_aux_hpd_bridge_drv), which 
already includes a module_init. In the newly added file, in order to call the 
register function, another module_init was also added. If the two files are 
each made into a module separately, would there be a problem?




thanks,
