Hello Ajay,

Not an extensive review since I'm not familiar with the graphics stack
but a few things I noticed are commented below.

Recently it's considered a good practice to have the DT binding
documentation in a separate patch.

If this is an expected condition then using DRM_INFO() instead? It
looks like an error to me though so maybe should return an error in
this case?

Same here.

The old integer-based GPIO API has been deprecated and new drivers
should use the new descriptor-based interface
(Documentation/gpio/consumer.txt) instead if possible.

The probe() function returning 0 means success to the driver core but
here is returning early due an error.

Same here, it should return an error code instead 0.
