Display drivers so far need to have a lot of boilerplate to first retrieve either the panel or bridge that they are connected to using drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge(), and then either deal with each with ad-hoc functions or create a drm panel bridge through drm_panel_bridge_add. In order to reduce the boilerplate and hopefully create a path of least resistance towards using the DRM panel bridge layer, let's create the function devm_drm_of_get_bridge() to reduce that boilerplate.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
