With just MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO_NO_HFP:
-> Display doesn't work

With just MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO_NO_HBP:
-> Display doesn't work

So if I set _either_ flag (or both) then the display doesn't work (it
just comes up black). If I set neither flag then things are still OK.

...and, if it helps, when the screen isn't working I can still force
the color bars to show up with:

i2cset -f -y 2 0x2d 0x3c 0x10

...so I know that the device has probed OK and the eDP side of things is OK.
