Let me answer all together here. I can explain a bit about one of the
pipelines used in Exynos. Exynos DSI DRM drivers have some strict host
initialization which is not the same as what we used in i.MX8M even
though it uses the same DSIM IP.
Exynos5433 Decon -> Exynos MIC -> Exynos DSI -> s6e3ha2 DSI panel
Here MIC is the bridge, Exynos DSI is the bridge and the requirement
is to expect the upstream bridge to pre_enable first from DSI which
means the MIC.
