-Transition away from using mipi_dsi_*_write_seq()
--------------------------------------------------
-
-The macros mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq() and mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq() are
-non-intuitive because, if there are errors, they return out of the *caller's*
-function. We should move all callers to use mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq_multi()
-and mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq_multi() macros instead.
-
-Once all callers are transitioned, the macros and the functions that they call,
-mipi_dsi_generic_write_chatty() and mipi_dsi_dcs_write_buffer_chatty(), can
-probably be removed. Alternatively, if people feel like the _multi() variants
-are overkill for some use cases, we could keep the mipi_dsi_*_write_seq()
-variants but change them not to return out of the caller.
