Hate to say it, but the i915 DSI support heavily relies on the VBT being
present. Basically all the configuration is there. I haven't got a clue
how emgd handles it. Maybe Matt does?

Basically you'd either have to figure out the configuration for the
panel from somewhere and feed it to intel_dsi_panel_vbt.c, or write a
panel specific driver of your own.

BR,
Jani.
