[PATCH] drm: panels: Add MAINTAINERS entry for LVS panel driver

Hi Thierry,

I don't mean to stir up anything, just voicing "my 2c" as they say.

Do you have a link to these discussions? Your blog article does not
have any links and I only found the "Runtime Interpreted Power
Sequences" thread.
That in itself does not cover the pros/cons of storing HW information*
within DT.

Personally, the idea of having hardware information* in DT does not
sound all that bad. The simple panel driver(s) can use those
properties and any panels that require anything more complex will
still need their own driver.
For better or for worse, there's already a handful of drivers and
bindings that rely on/provide these. Using that information
consistently across the board, would be of a benefit, IMHO.

But at the end of the day, might as well go with whatever RobH and the
DT folk are happy with. It's on them to maintain the DT ABI ;-)

Regards,
Emil

* Display dimensions, display timings and even delays for the power
sequence. Not too sure on that last one though.
