ST driver is much more simpler.

And having a common dw-mipi-dsi is unreal since each HW has a different glue HW
me must handle. Even if we moved all the glue handling under drm/bridge/synopsys,
we would need a different set of callbacks for each HW for each compatible
which is basically the actual situation except components.
