Yes, I understand we can move regulators/gpio setup separately and though we hardcode the init sequence there is difference in clock for DSI(which I mentioned in previous mail).

Don't know how we can go with generic bridge driver irrespective of these particular wrinkles, let me know if you have any suggestions. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
