+ * Panel enable/disable sequences from the VBT spec.
+ *
+ * Note the spec has AssertReset / DeassertReset swapped from their
+ * usual naming. We use the normal names to avoid confusion (so below
+ * they are swapped compared to the spec).
+ *
+ * Steps starting with MIPI refer to VBT sequences, note that for v2
+ * VBTs several steps which have a VBT in v2 are expected to be handled
+ * directly by the driver, by directly driving gpios for example.
