Thanks; any comment on the self-review I sent in for patch 3 and 5?

This panel has the default of four dsi data lanes enabled:

https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel/blob/f956fbd9a234033bd18234d456a2c32c126b38f3/arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/dsi-panel-somc-akatsuki.dtsi#L74-L77

Unless you are referring to dual-dsi (ctrl/phy); this panel doesn't have
a dual connection, but I do have devices on sm8350/sm8450 with a
"4k"@120Hz display that have this, in case you want it to be tested?

However, for the time being I'm focussing on a similar panel (4 data
lanes, single DSI ctrl/phy) on sm8250 which keeps showing corrupted /
garbled data and resulting in ping-pong timeouts.  I haven't yet
confirmed if this is due to the "integration" of the pingpong block with
the intf (since relevant registers and interrupts still seem to be
accessible), a mismatching resource topology, or a misconfiguration
elswhere.  Relevant panel dts if you're interested:
