Hi,
starting from v5.10-rc5 the SPI based panel of the GTA04 device is broken. It
uses
compatible = "spi-gpio"; [1] i.e. gpio descriptors very indirectly.
Bisect shows that it is commit
766c6b63aa04 ("spi: fix client driver breakages when using GPIO descriptors")
The commit description tells about a problematic pattern and indeed the driver
is
using it - like ca. 15 other spi based panel drivers in drivers/gpu/drm/panel/
I understood that it wants to fix the spi system to handle that correctly again.
But reverting your patch brings back the display. So it appears as if it does
not
fix a breakage, rather breaks a previously working setup.
What should we do?
BR and thanks,
Nikolaus
