Yeah, i was also thinking in similar lines, below is my though for
MIPI DSI support in CDF.

o   MIPI DSI support as part of CDF framework will expose

   > mipi_dsi_register_driver(mipi_driver, bus ops) (will be called
from platform specific init driver call )

·       bus ops will be
     o   read data
     o   write data
     o   write command

>  MIPI DSI will be registered as bus_register()

When MIPI DSI probe is called, it (e.g., Exynos or OMAP MIPI DSI) will
initialize the MIPI DSI HW IP.

 This probe will also parse the DT file for MIPI DSI based panel, add
the panel device (device_add() ) to kernel and register the display
entity with its control and  video ops with CDF.

 yeah, existing Exynos 5250 driver support MIPI DSI ass well as eDP.
 i think device documentation is NOT available publicly.
