Thanks for adding cc to me. Sadly this patchset crashed badly on Samsung 
Exnyos based boards. Here is the log from Exynos3250-based Rinato:

I've didn't check the code yet, but the conversion also lacks "select 
DRM_SAMSUNG_DSIM" in the Exynos DSI driver's Kconfig, as I wasn't even 
able to compile it with the current exynos_defconfig.

I've tested it on top of next-20200824, because it doesn't apply 
on current linux-next.

Best regards
