Thanks, I missed a few things during the last round, so here is a few
more comments. Only very trivial things but lets get them fixed before
we add the driver to drm-misc-next.

Unknown symbol - "git grep BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT" only turned up one
unrelated hit.

Please use a depends - using select on a symbol with a prompt is always
wrong. Yeah, I know you then need to enable backlight to see this
driver. Sorry, but this is the best we can do now.
Many other drivers can cope with depends here.

I like this last comment :-)

drm_print.h is no longer used and should be dropped.

I assume this is disabling the dcon load - so text needs an update

I have recently learned we shall also always set the scale.
This is missing in many drivers - but please do it here.
