I've objected to this particular change before and that objection still
stands. I don't see how this is related to DSI. It seems like an
implementation detail of this particular setup and I think it should be
handled differently (within the Exynos DSI controller implementation
possibly).

Laurent also asked you to split this up into two patches, one for the
core part, the other for the Exynos driver parts, yet this patch
contains both changes.
