My commit message is written based on commit of d8dfccde2709

$ git show c9e358dfc4a8
    
    This patch is based on commit c9e358dfc4a8 ("driver-core: remove
    conditionals around devicetree pointers").
    
    Having conditional around the of_node pointer of the drm_bridge
    structure turns out to make driver code use ugly #ifdef blocks. Drop the
    conditionals to simplify drivers. While this slightly increases the size
    of struct drm_bridge on non-OF system, the number of bridges used today
    and foreseen tomorrow on those systems is very low, so this shouldn't be
    an issue.
    
    So drop #if conditionals by adding struct device_node forward declaration.

I'm just start to contribute by mimic other people's tone, there seems no need
to over read.
