Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 12/12] drm/panel: panel-simple: Use runtime pm to
 avoid excessive unprepare / prepare

Hi Doug,

Thank you for the patch.

The prepare and unprepare calls are supposed to be balanced, which
should allow us to drop this check. Do you have a reason to suspect that
it may not be the case ?

Sounds fine to me.

The code looks good to me. Possibly with the prepared check removed,
