Well, if you remember, the panel did work *before* this patch was in my tree
and I found this patch as the reason of the break...

It could not have been different because the table was the result of
experimentally checking all possible combinations...

BTW: exactly this choice is questionable ^^^ if you have an active low CS
and it needs an explanation.

I am missing that you notice that we are not discussing what I should
do with the panel driver or my device tree. I have these patches laying around
for a while (which exactly do what you try to convince me about - except that
I would apply an GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW). Just not submitted because I want to
have a clear definition agreed on first. For a simple reason: reviewers
of my patch should know what to check for.

In this thread we discuss a patch for the SPI bindings documentation which
is something different. See subject and the file the patch affects.

And I am looking for an ack and merge by maintainers of the affected subsystems
that the table is ok. Nothing else.

Please let's stay on topic and please cooperate.
