Thats because we havent submitted a MR yet for this on mesa.

Generally, our team does not have legal permissions yet for mesa MRs 
other than mesa drm because we got permissions for the modetest.

Rob/Dmitry, can one of you pls help with the corresponding mesa MR for this?

The xml file change was autogenerated so this patch can go in.

Ideally yes, we could have done pclk/2 on uncompressed pixels but we are 
not going to add support for widebus on DSI without DSC as that is not 
recommended in our docs.

So this cannot be done.

We tried our best to respond and explain to all your queries both on the 
bug and the patch but i guess it just kept coming :)

I am going to try one more time to explain it in the documentation change.

Sure, no concerns with making this change.

No, we cannot support widebus on uncompressed streams on DSI so we wont 
be adding that.
