Hi Marijn,

Sure, I can move the change to dsi_ctrl_enable() instead.

I see what you mean, but unfortunately I'm not able to give you any 
documentation about the differences between them.

FWIW, I think the macros in dsi.xml.h should give you a sense of what's 
within the registers and the slight differences between them.

Thanks,
