Upon a bit of review:

The bspec makes it clear that this write protect key only needs to
be written for eDP on DPA -- it's a work-around for a bug where panel
power sequencing wouldn't work right.

The LVDS code does disable write protect in the _init function, which
seems global enough, but misses the resume case. We shouldn't ever
need to set this field though; it write protects registers only
when the panel is running. We could presumably remove the
write protect disable entirely in the LVDS code.

So, I think the patch as written is correct.
