me too. Maybe b is the same as in cb 

static struct gpio bt2ws_lb_gpios[] = {
        {BLC_L_GPIO,   GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW,  "gpio_blc_l"   },
        {BLC_R_GPIO,   GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW,  "gpio_blc_r"   },
        {LB_RESET_GPIO,GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW,  "gpio_lb_reset"},
        {POWER_EN_GPIO,GPIOF_OUT_INIT_HIGH, "gpio_power_en"},
        {PANEL_POWER_EN_GPIO,GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW, "gpio_panel_power_en"},
};

That is what is in the vendor kernel and matches

Panels are behind two dsi to dpi converters.
I have a driver. At the moment, I boot into vendor
v3.0 kernel, reprogram boot order, warm reboot into mainline u-boot +
kernel to get display working. I can read registers via dsi at least
after blanking the panel for the first time. Blanking/unblanking seems
to work.
With a low pulse on gpio15 I can reset something in the display which
the vendor kernel can recover from but not my mainline driver. Then no
communication with the display seem to work.

About gpio 10/14 I know only the name (from the possibly kernel sources
and matching /sys/kernel/debug/gpio). And that knowledge I want to
forward into the formal hardware description, the device tree.

$ grep -R PANEL_POWER_EN *
arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-bt2ws.c:
{PANEL_POWER_EN_GPIO,GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW, "gpio_panel_power_en"},
arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-bt2ts.c:
{PANEL_POWER_EN_GPIO,GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW, "gpio_panel_power_en"},
include/video/omap-panel-bt2.h:#define PANEL_POWER_EN_GPIO 14	// GPIO

But I did not get the supposed vendor kernel to fully boot. I have the verdict
that I do not have the exact sources of the kernel which is running.
I also did not notice any change in behaviour when toggling these gpios.
So either they are a leftover from another board revision or something
gets supplied by some parasitic ways.

I think the best is to explain the situation more in the comments.
What is a bit difficult is here is that there is something done in the m3
processors but apparently nothing vital to having display output (tried
with an initrd without any m3 firmware), probably
doing something camera-related, so the kernel sources do not give a full
picture of the hardware anyways.

BTW: do you know how to best trace gpio changes done by the vendor kernel
without recompiling it? I managed to write a module deviating the master_xfre
function for i2c to log things.

Discussed in patch 2.
