I think you want to get rid of prepared. The framework keeps track of state.

This is a reimplementation of mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq() so use that
instead. (Found in include/drm/drm_mipi_dsi.h)

Grrrr but not your fault. What *can* work is to look in related
datasheets and infer some of the magic variables from there.
Anyways best effort is best effort and as long as it's working
that's OK.
An experiment you can do if you have time is to see if you can read out
MTP ID from the panel (3 bytes, check how other drivers do it)
and use that to figure out who manufactured the actual display
controller. It's a bit of sleuthing.

I usually get it with GPIOD_OUT_HIGH so that reset i asserted at probe().
You do have active low flagged in your DTS do you not?
