Hi,

I'm hoping to pick the Pixel 3 stuff back up at some point, but right now there
seem to be quite a few issues outside of DSC which make testing it a bit of a pain.

I gave Marijn's series [1] a go but wasn't able to get anything usable out of the
panel, however I doubt this is a DSC issue as I've always needed some hacks to
get the panel working - I've never had any success with it without skipping both
the initial panel reset and sending the PPS payload.

I think if Marijn has managed to initialise a panel properly then the lack of
Pixel 3 for validation shouldn't be a blocker to merge these fixes.
