I am not convinced this is a good idea to revert to a default
VSdelay value. I tested your patch series with RK3399 platform
and default value (5) was not enough there. There was small data
underflow visible, resulting in display offset. Removing this patch
and using the original calculation formula fixed the problem.
The calculated VSDELAY value seems to be a lot bigger than required,
but keeps us on the safe side.

It looks that hback-porch value for panel is used also on DSI link,
effectively delaying hactive data delivered to TC358775 bridge.
I suspect this causes the requirement for higher VSDELAY.
