Sorry, a further thread of discussion coming from the investigations
I've been involved with.

You've powered up in pre_enable, and are sending the I2C writes in enable.

>From the docs for drm_bridge_funcs->enable[1]

   * The bridge can assume that the display pipe (i.e. clocks and timing
   * signals) feeding it is running when this callback is called. This
   * callback must enable the display link feeding the next bridge in the
   * chain if there is one.

So video is running when enable is called, and the DSI data lanes may
be HS. (Someone correct me if that is an incorrect reading of the
text).

The SN65DSI84 datasheet table 7-2 Initialization Sequence gives init
seq 8 as being "Change DSI data lanes to HS state and start DSI video
stream", AFTER all the I2C has been completed except reading back
registers and checking for errors.
With video running you don't fulfil the second part of init seq 2 "the
DSI data lanes MUST be driven to LP11 state"

My investigations have been over delaying starting the DSI video
stream until after enable, but reading the descriptive text for enable
I believe the Pi is correct to be sending video at that point.
I guess there is some ambiguity as to whether the clock lane is going
to be in HS mode during pre_enable. On the Pi the PHY and clocks will
be enabled prior to pre_enable to allow for sending DSI commands
during pre_enable, but it may not be true on other platforms.

You have to make sure the clock lane is running and in HS mode when
configuring the DSI83, otherwise the internal DSI83 state machine won't
be able to operate.

Indeed, but my reading of the documentation says that neither
pre_enable nor enable give you the state that you require.
You need a hook in the middle, an option to ask for clock lanes during
pre_enable or no video during enable, or an amendment to the docs over
the state during enable.

Having the data lanes in HS mode does appear to stop the DSI83
accepting the I2C setup commands.

Uhh, that is new. Is that what you observed in your lab ?

I saw the DSI83 behave this way if the clock lane was stopped, but the data lanes had no impact. Was your clock lane running when the DSI83 was not accepting i2c commands ? Does your DSI83 source clock from it or from external Xtal ?
