Can't/shouldn't this be done by userspace application? Why would someone
want to invert the color by default.

Also, this driver is built on top of the deprecated framebuffer, it will
never get out of staging/. For new feature, you probably want to send it to
drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-ilitek-ili9341.c instead.

Use MIPI_DCS_ENTER_INVERT_MODE instead of the magic number.
