Laurent or other drm maintainers might have more details than me, but, AFAIK the
drm_bridge_connector_init initializes a connector for a chain of bridges that
starts at the @encoder. At this point you don't know which bridge is connected
to the panel physically but doesn't really matter as what you know is that will
be only one connector in the chain.

Thanks,
Enric
