Thanks for testing.

The PRG_RXHS_SETTLE field stores a number of timer ticks to cover the
Ths-settle internal. The D-PHY arms the timer when it detects the
transition to LP-00, and ignores transitions on the lane until the timer
expires. The timer is clocked by the escape clock.
What hs_settle value do you currently use, and what value does my code
produce ?
