Not sure if we're on the same page.

It wasn't intended to deprecate [1] "qcom,qcm2290-dsi-ctrl", "qcom-mdss-dsi-ctrl";
(newly-introduced in Bryan's cleanup patchset) but it was intended to deprecate
[2] "qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290"; which was introduced long before that *and* used in
the 6115 dt (and it still is in linux-next today, as my cleanup hasn't landed yet).

[3] "qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290", "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl" was never used (and should never
be, considering there's a proper compatible [1] now) so adding it to bindings
didn't solve the undocumented-ness issue. Plus the fallback would have never
worked back then, as the DSI hw revision check would spit out 2.4.1 or 2.4.
which is SC7180 or SDM845 and then it would never match the base register, as
they're waay different.
