Hi Enric.

Would is be possible to use drm_bridge_chain_pre_enable()
and drm_bridge_chain_post_disable() rather than hardcoding
the dependencies here.
The the already present logic to handle a bridged chain is used
when pre_enable and post_disable.
Seems better to use the present logic to handle bridged chains if
possible. And it should simplify this logic a bit too.

I have noew checked - and there is several bridge drivers that
do a power_on to read get_edid - so I was mistaken. Sorry!
