Yes. He needs to initialize several displayport interfaces. With the 
current code he has to map ids in the set_encoder_mode, using encoder 
ids (to fill up the info.h_tile_instance, which is hardcoded to 0 for DP 
in the current code).

It is possible to support independent outputs with the current code. I 
did that for DSI, Bjorn did for DP. However it results in quite an ugly 
code to map received encoder in set_encoder_mode back to the DSI (DP) 
instances to fill the h_tiles. If we drop the whole set_encoder_mode 
story and call dpu_encoder_setup right from the 
_dpu_kms_initialize_dsi() (or _dpu_kms_initialize_displayport()), 
supporting multiple outputs becomes an easy task.

Yes

Let's stop calling it 'dual'. I'd suggest to continue using what was 
there in the source file: 'two independent DSI'.

Yes. If we have two independent DSI outputs, we'd like them to work in 
STANDALONE mode.

Yes, only in this case.

What is so confusing? I can probably add a comment there. If the encoder 
drivers single DSI output, we setup it after creating the DSI. If the 
encoder drives dual DSI outpu, we have to setup it after creating both 
DSI outputs.

I have tried calling dpu_encoder_setup from a separate if/loop 
condition, but it resulted in even uglier code.

The word 'SPLIT' is already overloaded in my opinion. I'd prefer to keep 
on using 'dual DSI' for the master/slave case and not to use 'dual' for 
just two standalone DSI interfaces.

For the MST support? It is definitely a separate patch. For now we want 
to be able to drive a much simpler config: SST on several connected DPs.
