Re: [PATCH v2] drm/panel: simple: Support reset GPIOs

Hi Sam,

you've asked in another thread [1] if there is any known simple panel
that requires a reset. We have a Densitron DMT070WSNLCMI-1E Panel
(compatible to avic,tm070ddh03) with some reset timing requirements, [2]
Page 20. So it would be nice to see this patch accepted.

Wadim
