[PATCH v10 03/11] drm/sun4i: dsi: Fix video start delay computation

The current code is computing vertical video start delay as

delay = mode->vtotal - (mode->vsync_end - mode->vdisplay) + start;

On which the second parameter

mode->vsync_end - mode->vdisplay = front porch + sync timings

according to "DRM kernel-internal display mode structure" in
include/drm/drm_modes.h

With adding additional sync timings, the desired video start delay
value as 510 for "bananapi,s070wv20-ct16" panel timings which indeed
trigger panel flip_done timed out as:

But the expected video start delay value is 513 which states that
the second parameter on the computation is "front porch" value
(no sync timings included).

This is clearly confirmed from the legacy [1] and new [2] bsp codes
that the second parameter on the video start delay is "front porch"

Here is the detailed evidence for calculating front porch as per
bsp code.

vfp = panel->lcd_vt - panel->lcd_y - panel->lcd_vbp
=> (panel->lcd_vt) - panel->lcd_y - panel->lcd_vbp
=> (tt->ver_front_porch + lcdp->panel_info.lcd_vbp
    + lcdp->panel_info.lcd_y) -  panel->lcd_y - panel->lcd_vbp
=> tt->ver_front_porch

Which is mode->vsync_start - mode->vdisplay according to
"DRM kernel-internal display mode structure" in include/drm/drm_modes.h

This patch fix this by updating the video start delay to use
front porch value.
