Did they use HDMI connector internally? Or was it just a panel wired
somehow to the HDMI pins?

If the former is true, then they still are pluggable. Even if you don't
have a way to detect that via the HPD pin.

If the later is the case, then it shouldn't be DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_HDMI.
Well, even if this is an internal HDMI, I'd still use some other
connector (e.g. DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_Unknown) just to point out that this
is not an externally visible HDMI connector one assumes to be able to
find on the body of the device.

Last, but not least, how would you remove DRM_BRIDGE_OPS_HPD from the
corresponding bridge driver?

Yes, check DRM_BRIDGE_OP_DETECT. But as I noted, there is a list of
connectors that will not ever have HPD or polling, but still always are
external. Well, even for VGA there is no good way to detect whether it
is plugged in or not (see the comment in display-connector.c).
