dsi_update_screen_l4() is quite old and unused code. I was mainly trying
out how CPU can be used for DSI transfer, and trying out different ways
to get better performance. You shouldn't look at it as any reference =).

The 0xfffff was just a random number to abort the transfer if it didn't
seem to go through. It worked for me, but probably won't work for other
cases.

I don't think that anyone really wants to update the screen with CPU, so
the code could even be removed.
