[PATCH v4 2/5] drm/mipi-dsi: Add flag to support dual-panel configurations
From: Jun Nie
Date: Thu May 21 2026 - 11:51:01 EST
Some devices treat two independent physical DSI panels as a single
logical panel from the CRTC's perspective. However, two separate DSI
hosts are still required to drive the panels individually.
Introduce a `dual_panel` flag to the `mipi_dsi_device` struct. This
allows a panel driver to inform the DSI host that it is part of a
dual-panel setup, enabling the host to coordinate both physical
displays as one.
