Hi Frieder,

I found this patch to break mipi-dsi display on my board which has:
- FocalTech FT5406 10pt touch controller (with no interrupt)
- Powertip PH800480T013-IDF02 compatible panel
- Toshiba TC358762 compatible DSI to DBI bridge
- ATTINY based regulator used for backlight controller and panel enable

I enable this via a dt overlay in a pending patch
imx8mm-venice-gw72xx-0x-rpidsi.dtso [1] which works on 6.4 but not
6.5-rc1 which has this patch.

The issue appears as:
[ 6.110585] samsung-dsim 32e60000.dsi: xfer timed out: 29 06 00 00
64 01 05 00 00 00
[ 6.326588] tc358762 32e60000.dsi.0: error initializing bridge (-110)

Instead of
[ 1.011729] samsung-dsim 32e10000.dsi: supply vddcore not found,
using dummy regulator
[ 1.019829] samsung-dsim 32e10000.dsi: supply vddio not found,
using dummy regulator
[ 5.649928] samsung-dsim 32e10000.dsi:
[drm:samsung_dsim_host_attach] Attached tc358762 device

I'm curious what board/panel were you needing this for and do you have
any ideas why it broke my setup?

I'm also curious what board/panel Alexander tested this with and if
Adam or Jagan (or others) have tested this with their hardware?

best regards,

Tim
