I think drm driver should have somewhere to implement the display disable case, like when fb0 is blank (echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank), then lcdif can be powered gated, and when display is back on (unblank), lcdif needs to be re-initialization and display will be on, current implementation is incorrect, with kernel booting up, lcdif is NOT working at all. The runtime power gating case can be implemented later to save power, need lcdif experts to do it. Thanks.
