Not quite, as there's the mutex in dpi so we can't call enable/disable
from set_timings. I could create separate non-locked internal functions
for enable and disable, but that feels more complex than just removing
the enable & disable from set_timings.

In the end we'll anyway only allow changing timings when the output is
disabled.

The only change I had to do, in addition to removing code from
set_timings functions, was to add display disable & enable calls to the
"timings" sysfs write. omapfb already only calls set_timings when the
output is disabled, and omapdrm does the same.
