Subject: [PATCH v2] drm/bridge: imx: i.MX8 bridge drivers should depend on ARCH_MXC

The various Freescale i.MX8 display bridges are only present on
Freescale i.MX8 SoCs. Hence add a dependency on ARCH_MXC, to prevent
asking the user about these drivers when configuring a kernel without
i.MX SoC support.

Fixes: e60c4354840b2fe8 ("drm/bridge: imx: Add LDB support for i.MX8qm")
Fixes: 3818715f62b42b5c ("drm/bridge: imx: Add LDB support for i.MX8qxp")
Fixes: 96988a526c97cfbe ("drm/bridge: imx: Add i.MX8qxp pixel link to DPI support")
Fixes: 1ec17c26bc06289d ("drm/bridge: imx: Add i.MX8qm/qxp display pixel link support")
Fixes: 93e163a9e0392aca ("drm/bridge: imx: Add i.MX8qm/qxp pixel combiner support")

I was wondering why those were added in drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/imx since they are specific to NXP SoCs,
I think they should be moved in the right drm imx subsystem instead of this change.

There are 2 directories which contain display controller drivers for
i.MX SoCs:
a. drivers/gpu/drm/imx - i.MX51/53/6qdl IPUv3, i.MX8mq DCSS and
i.MX8qm/qxp DPU([1], not landed yet)
b. drivers/gpu/drm/mxsfb - i.MX23/28/6sx/8mq LCDIF and i.MX8mp
LCDIFv3([2], not landed yet)

Bridges added in drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/imx make it possible to share
bridge drivers across display controllers. I see chance to use the
LVDS Display Bridge(LDB) helper(imx-ldb-helper.c) for i.MX6sx LDB.
