Sorry, now I found it thanks, will drop in next version.

I even tried this, but the difference wrt ST7701 can pass, same
command with type MIPI_DSI_DCS_SHORT_WRITE_PARAM but the default
mipi_dsi_dcs_enter_sleep_mode has length 0 so it's
MIPI_DSI_DCS_SHORT_WRITE type. ie reason I have not used.

I even tried this just set 0, since prepare is doing a sequence, it
good behavior to do the reverse during handoff. ie reason I just
initiated this sequence.

Sorry, I didn't get this requirement what is this for?

Yes unprepare is doing the same, it exit from sleep out mode and wait
for 120msec and do the reset.

Look like simple-panel.c is doing delay after reset initiated and
regulator disabled.
