This seems reasonable to me, but I'd prefer someone with more MIPI
experience than me to actually give it a good review to make sure that
the argument about things being in prepare() vs enable() makes sense
to them.

Actually, that makes me look at your CC list, which seems to be
missing some important people. You should have run
`./scripts/get_maintainer.pl` and used that to help you make your CC
list, but you're missing some important people including the
maintainer of this driver and the panel maintainer. I've added a few
of those people to this patch. If you send future versions please
include folks that get_maintainer points out.

In general people don't like the table-based approach for DSI init.
For this patch it's probably OK, but before the later patch where you
add a new panel you'll probably need to transition to a separate init
per panel and then use mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq_multi() in there. I'll
comment more on the later patch. In other words, one possible v5
should be a 5-patch series:

Patch #1: this patch
Patch #2: DT binding
Patch #3: switch jd9365da to use mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq_multi() but no
functional changes.
Patch #4: add your new panel.
Patch #5: orientation.
