Oh, I see now... There's just one dss video port for OLDI, the same as 
in am65x, but that single video port is now connected to two OLDI TXes. 
And thus this function will only be called for the single video port.

But... The registers for the second OLDI are part of the second video 
port (DPI) register block?
