SubjectRe: [PATCH 2/2] drm/panel: Add Samsung S6E3FA2 DSI panel driver
Hi Alexey,

I had some gmail problems and replied to the very old driver
by Iskren, sorry for the mess.

I overall like this driver a lot. Some of Sam's comments could
be addressed especially for backlight.

I think the driver should indeed handle both the physical
displays like you do here.

These look generic as pointed out in other mail.

I don't think this needs a wrapper, just call mipi_dsi_dcs_read() directly.

Interesting use of the "vendor" byte by Samsung here. It seems they are
repurposing the non-standard MTP bytes as they seem fit.

This and other things hints that we are dealing with the same display
controller.

0xf0 and 0xfc is obviously some "level 2 unlock" commands.
Maybe #define them as pointed out in other comments.

The use of two different registers for locking is suspicious, that
may point to different display controllers. :/

This is an icky panel, but it seems they are close enough to
be handled by the same driver IMO.
