Ok, this is a case c).

I vaguely remember having tried to analyse what bridge->hpd_cb is but =
stopped since it is NULL...

bridge->hpd_cb() callback to point to drm_bridge_connector_hpd_cb(), =

Ah, ok, I see.

Well, a little more analysis shows that drm_bridge_connector_enable_hpd =
is called
in the *-drv.c for some other plaforms:

Hm. Can we call drm_bridge_connector_enable_hpd() from inside dw-hdmi?

Or would this be the solution if merged? (I currently can't try code).
