Hmm, yes, the comment is a bit misleading. The DSI PLL is not used for
DPI, but for DISPC's LCD output. And DPI uses one of those LCD outputs.

On OMAP2 we can be certain the clock is PRCM =).

Yep. My point was mainly that dssdev needs to go away, and we should
somehow decide the used channel internally.

Who chooses which manager to use for DPI?

I'm not sure... I would really like to manage the basic setup, acquiring
the resources, etc. at probe time, and enable would only enable the display.

That means that we should somehow get a manager for DPI at probe time,
which may be a bit difficult, as we don't know what other displays there
will be. So if, say, DPI can use LCD1 or LCD2, but DSI can only use
LCD2, and at DPI's probe (presuming it's before DSI) we pick LCD2, DSI
won't work.

Anyway, while I'm not sure how to solve the above problem, I think we
should improve our init a bit. For DPI there are the following steps
done, in order:

- DPI device added
- DPI driver probe
- DPI panel device added
- DPI panel driver probe

We currently add the panel device in DPI driver's probe, and figure out
the DSI PLL at the same time. I think that should happen only when the
panel driver probe happens. The panel driver should call something like
dpi_get_output() or whatever, which acquires the DPI bus for the panel
driver, and this would probably also choose the manager.
