The current code
return mode->vtotal - (mode->vsync_end - mode->vdisplay) + 1;

(mode->vsync_end - mode->vdisplay) = front porch + sync

but I'm updating here only front porch.

let me explain this.

Actual code from Allwinner
u32 vfp = panel->lcd_vt - panel->lcd_y - panel->lcd_vbp;

So,

=> (panel->lcd_vt - panel->lcd_y) - (panel->lcd_vbp)
=> (front porch + sync + back porch) - (back porch + sync)
=> front porch + sync + back porch - back porch - sync
=> front porch
=> mode->vsync_start - mode->vdisplay

Hope it clear.
