The omapdss driver patches DT at runtime to prepend an "omapdss," prefix to the compatible string of all encoders, panels and connectors. This mechanism ensures they get bound to the omapdss-specific drivers instead of generic drivers. Now that we have drm_bridge support in omapdrm, we need to selectively disable this mechanism. Add a whitelist of compatible strings to patch, and fill it with all the devices we support. They will be removed one by one once corresponding drm_bridge drivers become available and get successfully tested with omapdrm. The omapdss components load check code is updated accordingly to ignore devices managed by external bridge drivers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
