You've gotten this back into basically the shape I sent v1 in, so I
guess this deserves an:

Acked-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org>

:)

Only net changes: you renamed the 'dsi' field to 'dmd' (Dwc Mipi
Device?), and my 'return 0' changed back to the original 'return ret' at
the end of probe(). Doesn't make any functional difference, so fine with
me.

If everybody's just as happy with this as with the first
version...should it just be applied now, regardless of the status of the
next 2 patches? Could help reduce the discussion (and confusion)
surface.

Brian
