Ok, so I was running the tests which you requested and during this
I managed to find the real problem.

What happens on reboot is a really quick panel off/on cycle and that is
causing the issue.

I can reproduce this by doing:

chvt 3; echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank; echo 0 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank

The problem is that we're not honoring panel_pwr_cycle_delay because
intel_dsi_msleep() is a no-op on devices with a MIPI-sequences version >= 3,
because those sequences already contain the necessary delays, at least
for most of the steps during the on/off sequences. It seems that the
pwr-cycle delay is not handled by those v3+ sequences.

So fixing this is as simple as switching to a regular msleep for the
intel_dsi->panel_pwr_cycle_delay.

Once we do that it would be good (for e.g. suspend/resume speed) to fix:

        /*
         * FIXME As we do with eDP, just make a note of the time here
         * and perform the wait before the next panel power on.
         */

Which sits right above that msleep. Since I have a reproducer now which
shows when the sleep is too short, it should now be easy ti fix the FIXME
and test that the fix works. I'll do this in a separate patch and send
a patch-set with both patches replacing this patch.

Regards,

Hans
