Ack: such information is exactly critical to have in the patch description.
Looking forward to seeing it in v2 :). It's not something I have been able to
deduce from "SDM845 lacks wide_bus support; porch shift removed".

If you plan on reusing the wide_bus_en feature to "detect" SDM845, such a thing
should be very clearly described in both commit and comment description. Though
I'm certain such behaviour is buggy, this'll be set to false on other SoCs if
the output format is yuv420 for example.
Without looking at the code too much, you should be able to get access to the
current DPU version through some of these structures which I'd recommend.
At the same time we should analyze _when_ downstream added this exception
for other SoCs, perhaps there's a hint or clearer conditional in one of their
patches or descriptions or code comments?
