It's really up to Sam how he wants to proceed here, but certainly you
could support things with the existing driver even if there are
differences. In general you can add more things to the `struct
panel_desc` in the driver and then make them different for your panel.
Look, for instance, at `discharge_on_disable`. Not all panels
supported by this driver do that, so you could support your "cannot
work in HS mode" in a similar way.

For the timings, you could also add another bit to the `struct
panel_desc` to select a different delay for your panel or (if it's
just a small delay) you could just increase it across the board. I
guess you need a 10 ms delay instead of a 5 ms delay in probe? I'd
just make it 10 ms across the board and call it done. Similarly looks
like something needs .5 ms => 1 ms. Again, this is likely fine across
the board for all panels.

Unless Sam comes back and says "no, wait, keep it two drivers!" then
I'd suggest that you post a new version that works as Sam suggests. In
the worst case if having it combined into one driver looks too ugly
then we can always go back to a split driver.
