Repeating my comments from v1 here too, since I expect this patch to
sit on the lists for a little while:


This is OK w/ me, but it will need time on the mailing lists before
landing in case anyone else has opinions. Specifical thoughts:

* I at least feel fairly confident that this is OK since these panels
essentially booted without _any_ delays back on the old downstream
v4.19 kernel. Presumably the panels just had fairly robust timing
controllers and so worked OK, but it's better to get the timing more
correct.

* This is definitely better than the very conservative timings and the
WARN_ON splat.

* I don't love the "Unknown" string, but it doesn't do anything other
than print to dmesg anyway and at least it conveys to anyone else
reading the table that the timings may not be quite as tight.
