I wasn't aware, that PBIAS register support is missing for DT
boot. The existing board code uses a 2.8-3.0V regulator for mmc1,
so missing PBIAS is probably the problem.

So we add reset-gpio and label to the DT data (they are panel
specific and independent of omapdss) and just hardcode "dsi.0"
with 2 data lanes into the driver? That sounds fine for me.

If neither Tomi nor anybody else has better ideas I will cook a
patch for that. I'm not sure how to setup the vdds_sdi regulator for
omapdss, though. Is there an example for a legacy driver using a DT
regulator available?
