We should ensure these patches get merged together with the driver
change to avoid breaking LCD for booting. Probably no need to have
the driver quirk handling for inverted polartity in this case.

It's probably easiest to have an immutable branch for the driver
changes I can base the dts changes on. Or I can ack the dts changes
if they get merged with the driver.

Tony
