This series pulls out the power-sequencing code from panel-simple into a
panel-common helper library. This allows drivers that cannot leverage
panel-simple to share some code.

I've converted the 2 sharp mipi drivers, and Chris Zhong's driver on the
list can also be converted. I haven't checked any other drivers, but I
suspect we'll see the same code blocks there too.

I'm sure there's more we can pull out of the various drivers, but this
seems like a good place to start talking about how to share common panel
code across drivers.

Adding Noralf to see if this might be useful for tinydrm.

tinydrm _can_ use panel_common, but it can also use drm_panel which we
decided against, so I don't know where the architectural lines go.

Most controllers/panels supported by tinydrm will have these fields:

struct mipi_dbi {
...
    bool enabled;
...
    struct gpio_desc *reset;
...
    struct backlight_device *backlight;
    struct regulator *regulator;
};

Noralf.
