Presumably you could be more spec compliant if we used
"panel_follower" in this case? Would that be a better solution?

Can't you just replace the last 0x00 above with "page" and get rid of
the manual assignment below?

Instead of hardcoding 3, should use ARRAY_SIZE().

optional: It feels like it would be nice to somehow use the
"_INIT_SWITCH_PAGE_CMD" macro I suggested in patch #1 instead of
having to hardcode 0x98, 0x82 again. In patch #1 I already suggested
breaking out the function to send a sequence of commands. If you had
that function take a pointer instead of hardcoding it to look at
->init_cmds then you could probably use the same function that you do
at init time?

nit: use 40000, 41000 instead of 40000, 50000. Linux almost always
uses the longer delay, so that'll save ~9 ms. The only reason for the
range is to optimize kernel wakeups which is really not a concern
here.
