Hi Jacopo
Thanks for the review (missed responding on my first pass)

Bad wording by me.

than the width.
Treating it as 0x2d8 * 2 = 1456 gives the right numbers.

Again bad wording.
The driver was using a value of 0x5fa intending it to be 1530 pixels.
(As discussed later, this is due to the driver using non-continuous
clock mode, which needs an increased hblanking).
However as the units are 2-pixels, the actual value required is 0x5fa
/ 2 = 0x2fd.
I'll reword this.
