Add support for the 1080x2340 Visionox R66451 AMOLED DSI panel that
comes with the Qualcomm HDK8350 display expansion pack.

The panel enables display compression (DSC v1.2) by default.

Should the mipi_dsi_dcs_set_display_on() (and maybe exit sleep mode) be a a part of _enable()? Correspondingly _off should IMO be a part of _disable callback().

Nop, mipi_dsi_dcs_set_display_on() should be part of prepare, to be called *before* the video stream starts, enable is called after in the atomic modeset chain,

To summarize our discussion: some controllers do not support sending commands in non-LPM mode. Thus the panel driver should send all commands before the DSI host switches from LPM to VIDEO mode.

Is this corret?

Do we need to add here the following line?

dsi->mode_flags &= ~MIPI_DSI_MODE_LPM;


No, it will be changed by the DSI core.

Hmm, where?

mipi_dsi_dcs_set_display_brightness() already converts the brightness, so you don't need cpu_to_le16 here.


The _large variant must be used instead.

But cpu_to_le16 is NOP, isn't it?
