[PATCH v3 0/4] drm: Fix bug in panel driver, update MIPI support macros

This series removes the unintuitive mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq() macro
and related mipi_dsi_generic_write_chatty() method from the drm
subsystem. This is in accordance with a TODO item from Douglas Anderson
in the drm subsystem documentation. Tejas Vipin (among others) has
largely spearheaded this effort up until now, converting MIPI panel
drivers one at a time.

The second patch of the series removes the last remaining references to
mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq() in the jdi-lpm102a188a driver and updates
the driver to use the undeprecated _multi variants of MIPI functions. It
fixes a bug in the driver's unprepare function and cleans up duplicated
code using the new mipi_dsi_dual macro introduced in the first patch.

changes to v3:
 - Define new mipi_dsi_dual macro in drm_mipi_dsi.h to reduce code
   duplication.
 - Fix bug in lpm102a188a panel driver's unprepare function which causes
   it to return a nonsensical value.
 - Make lpm102a188a panel driver's unprepare function send "display off"
   and "enter sleep mode" commands to both serial interfaces regardless
   of whether an error occurred when sending the last command.

changes to v2:
 - Remove all usages of deprecated MIPI functions from jdi-lpm102a188a
   driver instead of just mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq().
 - Update TODO item in drm documentation instead of removing it
   entirely.
