Does the T113-S3/D1 also have LVDS support in TCON regsiters?
My understanding is that it only has the combo-phy, so this register write
should not take place.

I think it would be easier to just move this to a common callback for users of
the tcon0 lvds phy and always call

Also "disable" is often used as opposite of "enable", so I would suggest using
"teardown" as opposite of "setup" instead.

I don't think it makes sense to call this dphy since it's used in LVDS mode
and not in D-PHY mode. I would suggest using "combo" as phy name instead.

It would have made more sense to also have the compatible reflect this
(by calling it combo-phy instead of mipi-dphy) but it's too late now.
