To be honest this looked somewhat minimal to me too at first, and then I tried to come up with any other properties but couldn't think of any. Of course anything that we add later on has the potential to break ABI compatibility. A few of the things I had in mind that might be added as properties were the number of lanes or the video format. But those will already be implied by the compatible value and therefore don't really belong in the DT. But if anyone can think of other properties that would be useful for DSI host or peripherals, by all means, let me know. > Anyway, have my > > Reviewed-by: Tomasz Figa <t.figa@samsung.com> Thanks, Thierry
