Hi Adrian,

Thanks for the patch. This is nice consolidation work.
I'm Ccing Heiko for the Rockchip part.

See below for some comments.

At least for Rockchip, I'd rather see this done in two
steps: first some regmap infrastructure introduced,
and then in a follow-up patch, the rockchip driver
moved to it.

It's safer, and better from a bisection POV, and from
a first look it seems doable.

It would be good to do try the same for STM. It's also
simpler to review that way.

You have the regmap here...

... and this goes for both STM and Rockchip: I don't think you need neither
the struct dw_mipi_dsi_plat_data.regs nor the
structdw_mipi_dsi_{rockchip, stm}.regs. You should be able to
just access the regmap via the struct dw_mipi_dsi.

Unrelated change, please drop it.
