Sorry - I had misremembered indeed, and looking back I confirmed that
this hunk was not required. I had incorrectly remembered that the second
part was required (below) and assumed that had meant both were.

Of course if we're disabling the scrambling mode, then it likely doesn't
matter what the seed is!.

Looking at the datasheet though, register 0x5a, clearly says the default
is 01 (ASSR) which we're not using. So the datasheet implies we want the
DP scrambler seed (if it were enabled?)

Reading the 0x5a register here shows we have 0x05. Indeed, re-reading
after attempting to write '0' to it still shows 0x05. So it's read-only
and not relevant regardless.

I've removed this hunk now.

looking at it yes. I've added a check to avoid that in my DP connector
case, and there doesn't seem to be any effect on the output. But I'll
add it to the patch for the next version.

Is this better:

	/*
	 * Only eDP pannels which support Alternate Scrambler Seed Reset (ASSR)
	 * are supported by the SN65DSI86. For DisplayPort, disable scrambling
	 * mode.
	 */

I don't know if it answers your 'why' ... and I don't think adding
 "We think it is for DRM protection"

really suits the comment.
