interestingly it works without setting anything in this register.

Setting it manually doesn't change anything visible:

root@letux:~# devmem2 0x13050090

Same for 0x130A0090. Maybe this lcdc register
is not used at all - at least for HDMI?

So I'd suggest to drop this whole patch from v5.

BR and thanks,
