DRM bridges are currently considered as a fixed element of a DRM card, and thus their lifetime is assumed to extend for as long as the card exists. New use cases, such as hot-pluggable hardware with video bridges, require DRM bridges to be added to and removed from a DRM card without tearing the card down. This is possible for connectors already (used by DP MST), it is now needed for DRM bridges as well. As a first preliminary step, make bridges reference-counted to allow a struct drm_bridge (along with the private driver structure embedding it) to stay allocated even after the driver has been removed, until the last reference is put.
