Add a driver that will work with most MIPI DBI compatible SPI panels. This avoids adding a driver for every new MIPI DBI compatible controller that is to be used by Linux. The 'compatible' Device Tree property with a '.bin' suffix will be used to load a firmware file that contains the controller configuration.
Example (driver will load sainsmart18.bin):
display@0 { compatible = "sainsmart18", "panel-mipi-dbi-spi"; ... };
v3:
- Move properties to DT (Maxime)
- The MIPI DPI spec has optional support for DPI where the controller is configured over DBI. Rework the command functions so they can be moved to drm_mipi_dbi and shared with a future panel-mipi-dpi-spi driver
v2:
- Drop model property and use compatible instead (Rob)
- Add wiki entry in MAINTAINERS
