So it means this panel requires proper driving of this bit, but it does
not prove it is
LPM related.

This sounds very strange. DSI specs and D-PHY specs says clearly
that LPM transmissions are unrelated to HS clock [1][2]. Even timing
diagrams
in Exynos specs shows no dependency of LPM transmissions on HS clock.
And the
description of TxRequestHsClk bit says "HS clock request for HS transfer
at clock lane (Turn
on HS clock)".

Maybe different flag should be used to describe your panel requirements
regarding this bit.

It would be good to see the real initialization sequence in form of
pseudo-code or better in the driver.


[1]: MIPI DSI: "Note that in Low Power signaling mode, LP clock is
functionally embedded in the data signals. When LP
data transmission ends, the clock effectively stops and subsequent LP
clocks are not available to the
peripheral. The peripheral shall not require additional bits, bytes, or
packets from the host processor in
order to complete processing or pipeline movement of received data in LP
mode transmissions. There are a
variety of ways to meet this requirement. For example, the peripheral
may generate its own clock or it may
require the host processor to keep the HS serial clock running."

[2]: MIPI D-PHY: "The data is self-clocked by the applied bit encoding
and does not rely on the Clock Lane".
