Unless someone like me interpreted it literally...

Like in these:

If you read the code you can see that this is interpreted as inserting
an EOT packet, so here you need to change the logic such:

if (!d->mdsi->mode_flags & MIPI_DSI_MODE_NO_EOT_PACKET)
val |= DSI_MCTL_MAIN_DATA_CTL_HOST_EOT_GEN;

This will make sure the host generates the EOT packet in HS mode
*unless* the flag is set.

(I checked the data sheet.)

Here you should just delete the MIPI_DSI_MODE_EOT_PACKET
flag because this was used with the MCDE driver which interpret the
flag literally.

Same, just delete the flag.

Same, just delete the flag.

These are all just semantic bugs due to the ambiguity of the flags, it is
possible to provide a Fixes: flag for each file using this flag the wrong way
but I dunno if it's worth it.
