Did you use just parts of this series or did you port the "lp11
notify" mechanism to the rk3399 platform? Please keep in mind, that
this bridge doesn't really work if the reset isn't deasserted during
lp-11 mode and lots of odd things happen.
Also, do you know if you have an EEPROM attached to the bridge or
does any firmware part initialize that bridge?

It was ages ago since I've worked on this bridge and extensively
tested and even measured and decoded the DSI link and the LVDS
stream. But IIRC this delay was only to compensate the difference
between the DSI clock and the LVDS clock, that is, if you push the
pixel stream slower into the bridge than the bridge is pushing it
out to the LVDS panel.
So the back porch should be irrelevant here (?!).
