sdm845.dtsi, L4139 as of v5.11-rc7:


port@1 {
                        reg = <1>;
                        dsi0_out: endpoint {
                        };
                    };


This means you can essentially do:

&dsi0_out {

    remote-endpoint = <&tianma_nt36672a_in_0>;
    lanes = <0 1 2 3>;

};


in your dt :)

I understand your concerns, however we actually did find out that at least one device had LAB/IBB set up by the bootloader in a way that could potentially damage the electronics, so I'm just making you aware. If it works as-is, it's probably OK.
