[PATCH] drm/mxsfb: fix pixel clock polarity

From: Stefan Agner
Date: Wed Dec 07 2016 - 19:27:18 EST


The DRM subsystem specifies the pixel clock polarity from a
controllers perspective: DRM_BUS_FLAG_PIXDATA_NEGEDGE means
the controller drives the data on pixel clocks falling edge.
That is the controllers DOTCLK_POL=0 (Default is data launched
at negative edge).

Also change the data enable logic to be high active by default
and only change if explicitly requested via bus_flags. With
that defaults are:
- Data enable: high active
- Pixel clock polarity: controller drives data on negative edge

Hi Marek,

I discovered this while testing on a i.MX 7 eLCDIF IP. Particularly the
non-standard DE polarity was causing issues. I was using a EDT display
which is part of simple panel driver since a while now and does not
specify any bus_flags currently... Of course I could (and probably should)
add the proper bus_flags there too, but there are several displays
which do not specify any polarity and likely rely on sensible driver
standards (which is afact high active for the DE signal).
