what is RX1 in your book? :-)

According to the TRM the rk3399 has 3 DPHYs,
tx0 - connected exclusively to dsi0
(this is handled internally by the dw-mipi-dsi driver with controls
in the dsi0 register space)
rx0 - connected exclusively to isp0
(this is handled by the individual dphy driver from Helen's series)
tx1rx1 - shared between dsi1 and isp1
(again inside the dsi1 register space)

dsi1 is of course a dw-mipi-dsi one, which in turn shares a common bridge
driver over multiple variants (non-rockchip), which expects its registers
mapped during probe.

I think it would not really work well if you need to make the whole world
follow that idea ;-) .


Hence my approach with exposing the phy interface from the dsi driver.
If you look at the dts part, it also just looks like it should be ... as
a regular phy:
https://github.com/mmind/linux-rockchip/blob/wip/tc358749/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3399.dtsi#L1764

And on the driver side there is even some short circuit protection.
When used as phy, it won't allow to be used as a component and
vice versa.

Counter argument, devicetree is not a means to handle Linux
peculiarites - instead it should describe the hardware ...
and the area there _is_ the dsi1 controller ;-)
