ANX7688 is a typec port controller that also converts HDMI to DP.
ANX7688 is found on Acer Chromebook R13 (elm) and on Pine64 PinePhone.

On Acer Chromebook R13 (elm), the device is powered-up and controller by the
Embedded Controller. Therefore its operation is transparent
to the SoC. It is used in elm only as a display bridge driver.
The bridge driver only reads some values using i2c and use them to
implement the mode_fixup cb.

On v5 we added the full dt-binding of the generic Analogix anx7688 device.
The problem is that for elm, most of the fields are not needed since
the anx7688 sits behind the EC. After a discussion on v5 (see [1])
we decided to go back to the original approach and send the dt binding
as specific to the elm. So in this version we rename the device to cros_ec_anx7688
and use the compatible 'google,cros-ec-anx7688'.

Changes since v5:
* treat the device as a specific combination of an ANX7688 behind the EC and
call it 'cros-ec-anx7688'

Changes since v4:
In v4 of this set, the device was added as an 'mfd' device
and an additional 'bridge' device for the HDMI-DP conversion, see [2].

Hi, pinging here, can one of the kernel bridge maintainers review this patchset?

Thanks,
Dafna
