If you look at the change made by your patch:

+++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_tcon.c
@@ -389,10 +389,10 @@ static void sun4i_tcon0_mode_set_rgb(struct
sun4i_tcon *tcon,

        /* Setup the polarity of the various signals */

If mode->flags is 0, then before your change it would set
SUN4I_TCON0_IO_POL_HSYNC_POSITIVE and
SUN4I_TCON0_IO_POL_VSYNC_POSITIVE bits to 1 (resulting in 0x03000000).
If mode->flags is not 0, then after your change it would not set
SUN4I_TCON0_IO_POL_HSYNC_POSITIVE and

Yes, I am sure I am using the correct panel. It has the following
marking on sticker:
AT070TN92V.X 89A070ZZ-0K1

No.

Thanks.
