Got a spec for this connector? How do I know if I have one or not?

The problem here is what else is on this connector? GPIO controls, 
power rails, etc.?

If this is some kind of standard connector, then we need to be able to 
remap everything on the connector not just DSI signals. And for that, 
it's not just DSI signals, so I'd say we would need some sort of generic 
graph remapping that the core graph code handles transparently.

 If it is not standard, then you don't need any remapping and can just 
use an overlay that connects the ports directly.
