Hi YoungJun,

Thank you for the patch.

Based on the next patch the panel seems to require quite a lot of device-
specific handling, although I might be mistaken as I'm not too familiar with 
DSI. If my understanding is correct, do we really need to specify all those 
properties in DT, or could they be hardcoded in the driver ? I would usually 
push for generic drivers that read device information from DT, but I'm 
wondering whether that is the right choice here.

If you decide to keep the information in DT I think you should document what 
happens when optional properties are not specified. I suppose the driver uses 
a default value, I would document it in the DT bindings.
