One of the earlier patches in the series (where we remove the
"disable" load) was harder to split since the DSI and DSI PHY code was
sharing a single data structure. Once I had one patch touching both at
the same time I figured I'd keep them all like that. If you need me to
rework them to be separate patches to make it easier to land then
please yell. Otherwise I'll assume it's OK.
