Hi Liviu,

Sorry for being a bit late.

I wanted to use drm_of_component_probe() for a new DRM driver, but I
could not find any way to do it: you add the "ports" nodes as
components while, usually, the components are the device nodes
themselves.

With this simple patch:

diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_of.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_of.c
index 493c05c..dbd2921 100644
--- a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_of.c
+++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_of.c
@@ -101,7 +101,7 @@ int drm_of_component_probe(struct device *dev,
                        continue;
                }

-               component_match_add(dev, &match, compare_of, port);
+               component_match_add(dev, &match, compare_of, port->parent);
                of_node_put(port);
        }

everything is easy, my DT being like:

        de_controller {
                ...
                ports = <&lcd0_p>;
        };

        lcd_controller {
                ...
                lcd0_p: port {
                        lcd0_ep: endpoint {
                                remote-endpoint = <&hdmi_ep>;
                        };
                };
        };

What was the reason to keep the "ports" node instead of the device?
