When we change the mipi_dbi_command() macro to check the error
value we can no longer retrieve the return value from the macro
so we need to use the call the command buf directly so that we
can obtain the return code.
I do not know any other way. Suggestions welcome!

Hm I can get to the SPI device, lemme try this.
