Just as a heads up, I tried testing your tree with my HiKey960, and
after fixing the compat string inconsistency, the drivers seem to load
properly. However the drm_hwcomposer seems to have some trouble with
the driver:
01-01 00:12:41.456   345   345 E hwc-drm-display-compositor: Commit
test failed for display 0, FIXME
01-01 00:12:41.456   345   345 E hwc-drm-two: Failed to apply the
frame composition ret=-22
01-01 00:12:41.456   351   351 E HWComposer:
presentAndGetReleaseFences: present failed for display 0: BadParameter
(4)

I'll dig in a bit further as to why, but wanted to give you a heads up.

thanks
