There is a usecase in OMAP4 where we can run 4 displays in
parallel, 3 can be run using the 3 dispc channels, and another DSI
panel can be run using L4 updates.

It would probably be better if we can connect 2 or more peripherals to
one DSI PHY, but with l4 updates we don't need to introduce any hardware changes
on the boards.

So with l4 update we can free one dispc channel. I am not sure how much the
4 display usecase is going to be used. But having l4 updates is still a handy feature,
especially if one wants to run both a DPI and a DSI display on OMAP3 :)
