Having a generic Synopsis DesignWare MIPI-DSI host controller bridge driver is a very good idea, however the current implementation has hardcoded quite a lot of the register layouts used by the two supported SoC vendors, STM and Rockchip, which use IP cores v1.30 and v1.31.
This makes it hard to support other SoC vendors like the FSL/NXP i.MX 6 which use older v1.01 cores or future versions because, based on history, layout changes should also be expected in new DSI versions / SoCs. This patch series converts the bridge and platform drivers to access registers via generic regmap APIs and allows each platform driver to configure its register layout via struct reg_fields, then adds support for the host controller found on i.MX 6. I only have i.MX hardware with MIPI-DSI panel and relevant documentation available for testing so I'll really appreciate it if someone could test the series on Rockchip and STM... eyeballing register fields could only get me so far, so sorry in advance for any breakage! Many thanks to Boris Brezillon <boris.brezil...@collabora.com> for suggesting the regmap solution and to Liu Ying <ying....@freescale.com> for doing the initial i.MX platform driver implementation.
