[PATCH 0/7] video: enable boot splash on i.MX8MP with LVDS panel

[Johannes Schneider]

This series adds the pieces needed to show a boot splash on i.MX8MP
boards driving an LVDS panel.

The i.MX8MP's LCDIF2 lives in the MEDIAMIX power domain and uses a new
V8 register layout, neither of which is currently handled in barebox:
register access without the media blk-ctrl hangs the AXI bus, and the
existing LCDIF driver does not match this variant.  There is also no
generic panel-lvds driver to terminate the VPL chain, and the LVDS link
clock needs an exact 700 MHz VIDEO_PLL1 rate to avoid pixel-clock
rounding artefacts at the edge of the display.  A few smaller fixes
were required along the way (optional backlight-pwm properties, a
png_pico double-free in the boot-logo path, and a write-combine drain
after each blit).

Patches:

  1. clk: imx8mp: add the 700 MHz VIDEO_PLL1 rate needed for an exact
     LVDS link clock.
  2. lib: gui: png_pico: fix a use-after-free / double-free triggered
     by displaying the boot logo.
  3. video: backlight-pwm: make power-supply and enable-gpio optional.
  4. pmdomain: imx8mp-blk-ctrl: add media blk-ctrl support so LCDIF2
     register access does not hang the AXI bus.
  5. video: add a new LCDIF V8 framebuffer driver for i.MX8MP.
  6. video: add a generic panel-lvds driver, mirroring the Linux one.
  7. video: imx-lcdif: DSB after each blit to flush the write-combine
     buffer before the LCDIF DMA reads pixels.
