Seems not, I remove it.

According to the panel datasheet, this is an input signal needed
passing through TFT connector (PIN30):
"Power IC supply enable, High active"

"mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq" doesn't exist but I will add it below
"mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq" in drm_mipi_dsi.h
I must keep the return check to jump out of "stk_panel_init" if
something goes wrong, but I can drop the error print.

Ok, it's managed by drm_panel.c driver.
Then I can also remove stuff from stk_panel_disable.
