Superfluous whitepace change.

Is it a good idea to leave the field uninitialized in this case? Maybe
go for both ports?

So, it seems weird to do the brightness read on both ports, and
overwrite the result on the second round. Do you have any further info
on this?

VBT only refers to "Panel PWM Bklt Controller On/OFF commands" and "CABC
On/OFF commands". I don't know what should be done with brightness
commands in dual link case.

So the spec says,

"Only one parameter is returned for devices that support 8-bit
brightness levels. Two parameters are returned for devices that support
between 9-bit and 16-bit brightness levels."

That's an annoying spec, but your implementation seems wrong for both
8-bit and 16-bit brightness. With the former, you'll only get one byte,
and you'll return the 0-initialized second byte. With the latter, you'll
get two bytes, but you'll return the least significant byte.

If, for starters, we assume 8-bit brightness, I think you should just
read one byte. (Given the spec, and depending on the hw implementation,
this might just work for 16-bit panes as well by way of reading/writing
the MSB.)

No need to initialize this.

This seems right for 8-bit brightness.

I'm still clueless which ports this command should be sent to though.

Here, it seems to me MIPI_DCS_WRITE_POWER_SAVE is a "CABC On/OFF
command" while MIPI_DCS_WRITE_CONTROL_DISPLAY is a "Panel PWM Bklt
Controller On/OFF command", but I'm just guessing.

Same here as above wrt ports.

I meant you should add this *instead* of the one above. They do have the
same condition and all...
