Marek S,

Thank you for testing!  I knoiw there are several of us who appreciate
your testing this since it's hard to know if something broke without
hardware.  Is there any way you can tell me if the flag is set to
enable MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO_BURST?
I was trying to be diligent about not breaking your boards, but
without your boards, it's difficult.  The theory was that if
MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO_BURST is set and there is a burst clock set in the
device tree, it would use the burst clock.

As a fall-back I could just simply check for the presence of the
burst_clock_rate instead of both MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO_BURST and
burst_clock_rate.

Would you be willing to test this if this line just read:

              if (dsi->burst_clk_rate)

That would tell me if my fallback idea works.

Thank you,
