I tried actually, but I'm not sure what the front porch and back porch
parameters actually are. They are called that way by Allwinner, but it
doesn't match the PAL or NTSC timings at all.
For example, back_porch is 118 for NTSC and 138 for PAL. Actual back
porches would be around 12 and 16, respectively. Actually, the entire
blanking area are 138 and 144. This is close enough for PAL, but pretty
far off for NTSC.
Allwinner has the habit of integrating the sync period into one of the
porches, but still there's no obvious match.
front_porch is pretty much in the same case.
Since it affected the display output quite a lot, I chose to keep it for
now unfortunately.

Can I add your Acked-by/Reviewed-by then?
Thanks!
