Hi Jan,

A couple of drive by comments:

No need for this, it's assumed that you have tested your own driver ;-)

tinydrm_spi_transfer() is gone now, but you can use spi_write() here. It
will run the transfer at ->max_speed_hz. The reason for
tinydrm_spi_transfer() to have a speed argument, is that some display
controllers can run pixel transfers at a higher speed than the commands,
hence the need to override and run commands at a lower speed.

This can also be written as: round_down(rect->x1, 8);

Are you rounding up here?
If so: rect_aligned.x2 = round_up(rect->x2, 8);

Why do you need these DT properties when you define compatibles for all
the panels, can't you include these settings in the type descriptor?

tinydrm_display_pipe_init() is gone now, here's how I replaced it in the
other e-ink driver:

drm/tinydrm/repaper: Don't use tinydrm_display_pipe_init()
