Looks right to me.

I've never seen the polarity matter for any eDP panels I've worked
with, which presumably explains why this was wrong for so long. As far
as I can tell, it's been wrong since the start. Probably you should
have:

Fixes: a095f15c00e2 ("drm/bridge: add support for sn65dsi86 bridge driver")

I put this on a sc7180-trogdor-lazor device and it didn't make
anything worse. Since the sync polarity never mattered to begin with,
I guess this isn't a surprise. ...so I guess that's a weak tested-by:

I'm happy to land this patch, but sounds like we're hoping to get
extra testing so I'll hold off for now.
