Not really. Such an opportunistic power up was expected to be there
and ... it failed, as you can see from the pre_enable_prev_first and
then by this series.

If the device doesn't set either of these flags, the DSI host can not
make any guesses about the time to power up the link. So, it should
follow the previous approach of enabling the DSI link no later than
mode_set. Otherwise the DSI sink might not be able to send DSI
commands from pre_enable callback.

Well, you have said it. The automatic enabling doesn't work if the DSI
host has no information about the DSI sink.
