Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] drm/bridge/synopsys: dsi: use common mipi_dsi_create_packet()

From: Philippe CORNU

Hi Brian & All *DSI DRM experts*,

1) Re-reading this patch, I realize that the returned value of
dw_mipi_dsi_host_transfer() is not correct: we should return the number
of transfered/received bytes...

so I think there are two solutions: fix this in this serie or add a TODO
for later (both solutions are fine to me :-)


2) Digging more into the drm code, the function
mipi_dsi_device_transfer() in drm_mipi_dsi.c is called in the same file
by the 3 following functions: mipi_dsi_shutdown_peripheral(),
mipi_dsi_turn_on_peripheral() &
mipi_dsi_set_maximum_return_packet_size(). All these 3 functions are
expecting "Return: 0 on success or a negative error code on failure."
that is not in line with the transfer function.

So then, we can change the documentation in this file and have instead
"* Return: The number of bytes transmitted on success or a negative
error code on failure." as for mipi_dsi_generic_write()...
Or we can change the source code of these 3 functions to match with the
documentation "Return: 0 on success...".

note: Hopefully, "users" of these 3 functions test the sign of the
return value (or do not use it).

Does anyone have a preferred solutions?

Many thanks
Philippe :-)
