I think this is related to the following (from DSI spec): "To enable PHY synchronization the host processor should periodically end HS transmission and drive the Data Lanes to the LP state. This transition should take place at least once per frame" And in OMAP TRM: "Special care must be taken in the case of the last line of the frame. The LPS transition is required when the link is in HS mode for the whole frame." I'm not 100% sure about that, but I'll change the commit description and add a comment to reflect the above text.
