I am afraid that just replacing cec_notifier_get with
cec_notifier_get_conn won't necessarily make this information
available, as, e.g. looking at tegra, those would also require some
reshuffling of the code so that notifier is created once connector is
initialized. Btw. I've updated dw-hdmi.c and tda998x_drv.c to use
cec_notifier_get_conn, so at least those 2 will be covered.

I hope this is fixed in v7.

Thank you for your testing and best regards!
