Re: [RESEND] [PATCH v2 2/4] dt-bindings: Add jdi lt070me05000 panel bindings

[Vinay Simha <simhavcs@gmail.com>]

if we do not set the polarity to 8mA, panel will have gibberish display.
(information to set 8mA is available only in
nexus7-msm-flo-3.4-lollipop-release_dsi kernel nx7 release)

i will add this
reset-gpios = <&tlmm_pinmux 54 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
