[PATCH 1/3] drm/bridge: nwl-dsi: Limit LCDIF specific sync override

From: Esben Haabendal

Date: Fri Jul 10 2026 - 10:04:19 EST


When using DCSS with NWL, overriding the mode flags to enforce active high
sync is preventing the use of active low with downstream bridges, such as
ti-sn65dsi83, which will not see such mode flags set by the panel.
