I'm a little confused. As of the latest drm-misc-next I'm looking at,
this still has conflicting documentation.
For ->transfer():
On success it shall return the number of bytes
* transmitted for write packets or the number of bytes received for read
* packets.
While mipi_dsi_generic_read() says:
* Return: The number of bytes successfully read or a negative error code on
* failure.
But it just returns the value that ->transfer() returns.
So I'm not sure whether the documentation is still wrong, or if the
implementation is.
Anyway, I guess maybe that isn't super-critical to *this* patch, since
we don't have RX support yet...

It feels like you could just wait to add that when you need it? It
really feels trivial and useless right now :)
