I guess, but it's also the least of our concerns for Francesco regression.

*Which* scenario? All of these panels are DPI panels.

That's not the right compatible...

What happens if panel_dpi_get_desc fails?

So, if the panel is a panel-dpi driver, you *always* return an error
now? How can that possibly work?

I'll send some fixes.
