You mean Krzysztof's comment?
He has two comment.
The first is 'remove'. You actually not remove "mediatek,mt8167-dsi". You change it.
The second is about fallback. I'm also not sure why he says it's NAK. Also a bad wording?
After Angelo's comment, Krzysztof does not response.
I also do not know what Krzysztof think.
I agree with Angelo. Single "mediatek,mt8167-dsi" does not reflect the hardware compatible but fallback does.
Maybe describe more information (hardware) to Krzysztof, and ask what's the better way to do.
