I have set up based on our complete letux-5.10-rc2 tree and maybe using our private config makes
the difference. Anyways, the driver is now probed and I can see the call to w677l_get_modes().

I have still no image and no calls to prepare/unprepare etc. but now I can start to debug on omap5.
And hopefully we are close to push the panel driver for review. And in a second step some device
tree for the Pyra.

The new tree is here: https://git.goldelico.com/?p=letux-kernel.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/work-pyra-panel

BR and thanks,
