drm/bridge: Add RGB to VGA bridge support
Some boards have an entirely passive RGB to VGA bridge, based on DACs implemented by resistor ladders. Those might or might not have an i2c bus routed to the VGA connector in order to access the screen EDIDs. Add a bridge that doesn't do anything but expose the modes available on the screen, either based on the EDIDs if available, or based on the XGA standards.

+Dumb RGB to VGA DAC bridge
+---------------------------
+
+This binding is aimed for dumb RGB to VGA DAC based bridges that do not require
+any configuration.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: Must be "dumb-vga-dac"
+
+Required nodes:
+
+This device has two video ports. Their connections are modelled using the OF
+graph bindings specified in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt.
+
+- Video port 0 for RGB input
+- Video port 1 for VGA output
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+bridge {
+ compatible = "dumb-vga-dac";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ ports {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ port@0 {
+ reg = <0>;
+
+ vga_bridge_in: endpoint {
+ remote-endpoint = <&tcon0_out_vga>;
+ };
+ };
+
+ port@1 {
+ reg = <1>;
+
+ vga_bridge_out: endpoint {
+ remote-endpoint = <&vga_con_in>;
+ };
+ };
+ };
+};
