That is the problem I always had for many years,  so I realized the
panel vendors here can help quite a bit. Try to contact via panel
vendors.

Make sense, I will correct this.

I understand your point, I did think the same but since this delay is
specific to cz101b4001 init sequence adding it as part of the
cz101b4001 specific sequence makes sense to me instead of adding it on
common code. If there is another panel with a different delay sequence
might affect these delays in common code.

Look like we don't need to take care of len here, I will try to use this.

Thanks,
