You're right, I just tested that.

No reponse for now.

So for now, your explanation is the most reasonable. Should we go ahead and
implement your idea?

Please note that H6 has TCON-TOP too, but it has only one LCD TCON and one TV
TCON instead of two of each kind. That means we will have hole in indices
(tcon_lcd0 is 1, tcon_tv0 is 3, which is aligned with R40) and different TCON-
TOP binding (no tcon_tv1 channel clock), but setup is exactly the same.

Best regard,
Jernej
