Independent DE is unique to A133/A100 AFAIK.

#define TCON_TOP_PORT_DE0_MSK                   GENMASK(1, 0)
#define TCON_TOP_PORT_DE1_MSK                   GENMASK(5, 4)

references towards DE0 and DE1 is for DE itself, not the mixers in the
current implementation.

Handling for mixer0 <-> lcd1 and mixer1 <-> lcd0 also needs to set
DE2TCON_MUX in de clock, which is missing now.

sun8i_tcon_top_set_hdmi_src for R40 already sets these values via quirks.
i.e controlling the port muxing. Also D1 quirks is same as R40. So the
original changes to make the DE1 point to TVx can also done in this quirk
without hardcoded value?
