Oh that is an odd situation!  At least glad to hear we aren't completely
duplicating our efforts :)

_dual panels_?  In my case I have a "single panel" that is driven by two
"bonded" DSI hosts, just to achieve enough bandwidth.

Indeed my downstream DTS has qcom,mdss-dsi-panel-width set to half the total
panel width, but I recall seeing the full width in the register dump.  I'll scan
through my logs and see if I can back this up.

Another thought: it's probably clearer to write:

	bool is_cmd_mode = msm_host->mode_flags & MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO;
	dsi_update_dsc_timing(msm_host, is_cmd_mode, hdisplay);

This reply was mostly expected after not looking at the original code folded in
the diff, and pretty much solidifies my point: it's a hidden semantical change
that's not immediately obvious from reading the patch, and why I'd like to see
this split up in a few smaller patches.

Regarding another patch: cmdmode calculates and uses word count here, but video
mode does it as part of timing calculations?
