Is it a problem with your mail filters? You can see it at:

You are listed on the "To:" line. ;-)

I didn't intentionally fix any bug in my patch--I just reverted it all
back to how it was before. ;-)

So looking more closely, it looks like overall the current code (AKA
what's landed today and without ${SUBJECT} patch) doesn't really
handle errors with dsi_mgr_bridge_power_on() very well. The normal
case of calling dsi_mgr_bridge_power_on() from modeset is totally
ignored because modeset returns no error. Then the special workaround
for ps8640 just followed the same pattern and assumed that
dsi_mgr_bridge_power_on() succeeded. It also assumed that if the rest
of dsi_mgr_bridge_pre_enable() failed that it didn't need to undo
dsi_mgr_bridge_power_on() because it wouldn't have undone it in the
modeset case.

While the current code isn't the best, it's not like the pre_enable()
call could have returned errors anyway. It probably wasn't truly the
end of the world to behave the way it did.

With all that, I guess my plan would be to do as Dmitry says and just
always call dsi_mgr_bridge_power_on() from
dsi_mgr_bridge_pre_enable(). In the first patch I'll just do that and
remove the ps8640 workaround. Then I can add a 2nd patch that improves
the error handling by having dsi_mgr_bridge_power_on() return an error
code and then adding a matching dsi_mgr_bridge_power_off() that will
undo it and include the extra cleanup.
