[v2,1/2] dt-bindings: display/msm: dsi-controller-main: Fix deprecated QCM2290 compatible

  SM6115 previously erroneously added just "qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290",
without the generic fallback. Fix the deprecated binding to reflect
that.

Wasn't then intention to deprecate both - qcm2290 and mdss - when used
alone?

"qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290", "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl"

was never used. The only upstream usage of the 2290 compat
is in sm6115.dtsi:

compatible = "qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290";
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sm6115.dtsi?h=next-20230217#n1221

I meant, that original commit wanted to deprecate:
compatible="qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290";
compatible="qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl";

First, it would be nice to know what was the intention of Bryan's commit?

Second, if the intention was to deprecate both of these, then this
commit could stay with changes - make it enum for both compatibles (not
list).

AFAICT, it was necessary to add per-SoC compatibles to all DSI hosts
to make documenting clocks possible (they differ per-platform).

The qcm2290 deprecation came from the oddity of the compatible name
(it did not match qcom,socname-hw), but he seems to have overlooked
that (at least before my recent patchset [1]), it was necessary as it
needed to circumvent part of the driver's logic. So it was first made
up-to-speed with the rest by adding the fallback common compatible and
then (wrongly) deprecated.


Then, SM6115 DSI DTS part was added parallel to that, so he did not
update it.

With [1] its deprecation is correct and this series tries to complete
it.

Sorry I've been grazing this thread but, not responding.

- qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290

is non-compliant with qcom,socid-dsi-ctrl which is our desired naming 
convention, so that's what the deprecation is about i.e. moving this 
compat to "qcom,qcm2290-dsi-ctrl"

Actually I have the question why we are deciding to go with "sm6115" 
instead of "qcm2290" ?

The stamp on the package you receive from Thundercomm says "qcm2290" not 
"sm6115"

?

Correct, but QCM2290 is not supported upstream yet.

SM6115 (a different SoC) however is, but it used the qcm2290 compatible
as it was a convenient hack to get the DSI host ID recognized based on
the (identical-to-qcm2290) base register without additional driver changes.
We're now trying to untangle that mess..

Gand so what we want documented is:

compatible = "qcom,qcs2290-dsi-ctrl", qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl";
compatible = "qcom,sm6115-dsi-ctrl", qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl";

with the old compatible = "qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290"; clanger continuing 
to be deprecated.

qcm* yes, this became documented with your original cleanup

and yes this became documented (well, in the DSI binding) in
my other patch series and is finished being documented in this one

correct, we still have to note it but keep it deprecated

Cool.

That maps to my understanding & the intention of the deprecation.

OK, then there was no intention to deprecate qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl and it
should be left as allowed compatible.

Not sure if we're on the same page.

It wasn't intended to deprecate [1] "qcom,qcm2290-dsi-ctrl", "qcom-mdss-dsi-ctrl";
(newly-introduced in Bryan's cleanup patchset) but it was intended to deprecate
[2] "qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290"; which was introduced long before that *and* used in
the 6115 dt (and it still is in linux-next today, as my cleanup hasn't landed yet).

[3] "qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290", "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl" was never used (and should never
be, considering there's a proper compatible [1] now) so adding it to bindings
didn't solve the undocumented-ness issue. Plus the fallback would have never
worked back then, as the DSI hw revision check would spit out 2.4.1 or 2.4.
which is SC7180 or SDM845 and then it would never match the base register, as
they're waay different.

All these were known. I was asking about "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl", because
the original intention also affects the way we want to keep it now
(unless there are other reasons).

Okay, so we want to deprecate:

"qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290", "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl"

because it is:

1) non-compliant with the qcom,socname-hwblock formula
2) replaceable since we rely on the fallback compatible
3) "qcom,dsi-ctrl-6g-qcm2290" alone would have been expected to
   be fixed in the DTSI similar to other SoCs

Is that correct?

Because 2) doesn't hold, as - at the time of the introduction
of Bryan's patchset - the fallback compatible would not have
been sufficient from the Linux POV [1], though it would have been
sufficient from the hardware description POV, as the hardware
on the SoC *is* essentially what qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl refers to.

[1] The driver would simply not probe. It *would be* Linux-correct
after my code-fixing series was applied, but I think I'm just failing
to comprehend what sort of ABI we're trying to preserve here :/

No, we don't want to deprecate it. Such compatible was never existing
originally and was only introduced by mistake. We want to correct the
mistake, but we don't want to deprecate such list.

No. So again, I am talking only about qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl. Since
beginning of this thread:

"Wasn't then intention to deprecate both - qcm2290 and mdss - when used
alone?"

Why do you bring the list to the topic? The list was created by mistake
and Bryan confirmed that it was never his intention.

There was no fallback compatible at that time.

Ugh.. I think I just misread your message in your second reply
counting from the beginning of the thread.. Things are much
clearer now that I re-read it..

So, just to confirm..

This patch, with the items: level dropped, is fine?
