Having component_add for running all drm bind callbacks returns
error or unbound due to chain of DSI devices connected across
bridge topology on a display pipeline.

In a typical bridge oriented display pipeline where the host is
connected to the bridge converter and that indeed connected to
a panel.

DRM => SUN6I DSI Host => Chipone ICN6211 => BananaPi Panel

The bridge converter is looking for a panel to probe first and
then attach the host. The host attach is looking for a bridge
converter to probe and preserve bridge pointer, at this movement
the host is trying to bind the all callbacks and one of the bind
callback in the DSI host is trying to find the bridge using the
bridge pointer in sun6i_dsi_attach call.

chipone_probe().start
    drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge
        mipi_dsi_attach
             sun6i_dsi_attach
                 drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge
chipone_probe().done

sun6i_dsi_probe().start
    mipi_dsi_host_register
        component_add
sun6i_dsi_probe().done

However, the movement when panel defers the probe, will make the
bridge converter defer the host attach call which eventually found
a NULL bridge pointer during DSI component bind callback.

So, in order to prevent this scenario of binding invalid bridge,
wait for DSI devices on the pipeline to probe first and start the
binding process by moving component_add in host probe to attach call.

chipone_probe().start
    drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge
        mipi_dsi_attach
             sun6i_dsi_attach
                 drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge
                      component_add
chipone_probe().done

sun6i_dsi_probe().start
    mipi_dsi_host_register
sun6i_dsi_probe().done
