I can try to move the clk_prepare_enable/disable_unprepare() calls in
the bridge->enable/disable() hooks, but I'm not sure the DSI regs
content is kept when I disable dsi_p_clk.

Yep.

I don't know, that's what is stated in the spec.
Excerpt from the CMD_SIZE field description:

"
For read operations, any value
written which is larger than 2
bytes will be ignored and the
command payload will be truncated
to 2 bytes.
"

Hm, I'm not sure. DSI commands are usually sent when the encoder/bridge
is not transmitting video, so in this case we don't have any constraint
on the packet length. Also, it seems other drivers are not checking the
vblank timing constraint when sending commands so either it's handled in
HW and the controller is able to report invalid lengths or no one cared
enough to take this case into account.

Anyway, I'll ask Cadence engineers to know how they deal with this
video+command situation.

Thanks,

Boris
