Hi,
To support a plethora of MIPI panels, the VBT has been enhanced to support
multiple panels in a generic manner. This involves adding one MIPI configuration
block (#52) which provide all panel specific configuration data along with the 
dphy configuration information as per panel/tcon specs. Also a sequence (#53) block 
is added to provide required sequences for panel enabling.

The driver will use this parsed data to enable the panel which is described in these
two block. The i-g-t tool intel_parse_bios changes to parse these new block is WIP.

The generic driver will be as one of sub-encoder driver in the existing design to support 
MIPI. Followup patches for this driver will come next.

v2: Address review comments from Jani Nikula
    - update datastructures and related code  to enable cleaner and simpler code
    - using kmemdup instead of kmalloc and memcpy
    - Proper error detection during parsing MIPI sequence block

Regards
Shobhit
