Hi Dimtry,

Thanks for your fix for the DB410c breakage ("drm/msm/dsi: do not
try reading 28nm vco rate if it's not enabled") that this patch
causes.

I re-tested my patch on top of qcom/linux for-next (3e6a8ce094759)
which now has your fix, on a DB410c with HDMI display and no splash
(which seems to be the default using the Linaro SD card image's LK),
and indeed it is fixed.

I assume you already also did the same & are okay with this going in.
Appreciate the testing!

Ben
