Synaptics' Touch and Display Driver Integration (TDDI) technology [1]
employs a single chip for both touchscreen and display capabilities.
Such designs reportedly help reducing costs and power consumption.

Although the touchscreens, which are powered by Synaptics'
Register-Mapped Interface 4 (RMI4) touch protocol via I2C or SPI have
driver support in the kernel, the MIPI DSI display panels don't.

This series introduces a rudimentary driver for controlling said display
panels, which supports TD4101 and TD4300 panels.

Hi,

I've been trying to get this driver accepted. If panel maintainers have
haven't looked into it yet, this is a gentle reminder.

Thank you.
