This is not really taking any delays into account, especially since
drm_panel_enable and prepare are suppose to block until their
operation is complete.
drm_panel_prepare turns on power to the LCD using enable-gpios property of the panel and then blocks for prepare delay. The prepare delay for panel can be set to how long it takes between the time the panel is powered to when it is ready to receive images. If backlight property is specified the backlight will be off while the panel is powered on.
drm_panel_enable blocks for enable delay and then turns on the backlight. The enable delay can be set to how long it takes for panel to start making the image visible after receiving the first valid frame. For example if the panel starts off as white and the TFT takes some time to initialize to black before it shows the image being received.
Refer to drivers/gpu/drm/panel-panel.simple.c for details.

Jonathan
