Hi Angelo:

To explain to you that in my patch, sending a NOP before lcm_reset is 
what this particular panel driver needs.

Indeed, the NOP will not reach the panel driveric before lcm_reset,
but the driveric specification stipulates that the MIPI signal needs
to be pulled high before lcm_reset is pulled high(NOP 
-> mtk_dsi_host_transfer -> mtk_dsi_lane_ready) . In order to avoid 
special driver initialization exceptions, this control was added.

Best Regards!
