drm: bridge: document bridge attach/detach imbalance

Browse source 
Since commit 4a878c03d5 ("drm: bridge: Detach bridge from encoder at
encoder cleanup time"), it is generally no longer correct to detach bridges
from encoders manually. Document that.

@ -104,6 +104,10 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(drm_bridge_remove);
* If non-NULL the previous bridge must be already attached by a call to this
* function.
*
* Note that bridges attached to encoders are auto-detached during encoder
* cleanup in drm_encoder_cleanup(), so drm_bridge_attach() should generally
* *not* be balanced with a drm_bridge_detach() in driver code.
*
* RETURNS:
* Zero on success, error code on failure
