Hi Russell,
I like this approach and it is something I will need for other CEC drivers (not yet merged) as well.
Just a few comments:

This is Russell's HDMI notification prototype [1], currently waiting for the HDMI CEC situation to resolve.
The use case for the notifications on MediaTek MT8173 is to let the (dis)connection notifications control an ALSA jack object.
No Signed-off-by since this is not my code, and still up for discussion.

I would prefer const u8 *edid. It is after all just a u8 array and not some opaque data structure.
In DRM, the edid is of type "struct edid" (defined in include/drm/drm_edid.h). So, making it "const u8 *" means that all DRM drivers will have to explicitly cast it - not something I'm in favour of.
I thought this was the raw EDID data. But if you pass a struct edid around, then why not make this const struct edid *edid? I fail to see why you would want to use a void pointer here.
struct edid is a DRM thing - it's not generic. Using struct edid here would force everyone to use the DRM structure, whereas other subsystems use, eg, unsigned char.
Also struct edid is for the first EDID block only, whereas CEC drivers need the CEA-861 block to get the physical address.
That may be, but DRM parses the HDMI vendor block too while still using struct edid to represent it. See drm_find_edid_extension() in drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid.c
This is just how DRM is... I'm not sure what the design decisions were that came up with this, but it's what we have, and I'm not sure whether DRM would be open to changing it.
The ELD stands for EDID-like data. See information on HDA039. It's a method of conveying the EDID data specific to audio drivers to them without having the complexities of parsing the full EDID each time. It's also exported to userland so that userland can determine the capabilities of the audio path, again, without having to have full EDID parsers and exporting the full EDID data block through audio drivers.
OK. Since eld is an unsigned char array I would suggest changing void to unsigned char here.
Or perhaps const unsigned char eld[128].
Yes, I'll make that change.
