This solves your problem, but it breaks the panel standard for everyone
else since you're not converting them over.

There needs to be more thought here in how to make this all compatible.

Also I think we need very precise spec for how this is supposed to work
with DSI panels, and then making sure existing drivers mostly follow this.

Hacking up a shared interface that's used by lots of drivers just to then
fix a bug in one user and one implementation is not good.
