Just because I was curious and wanted to confirm my claim that this
would result in a nice space savings for novatek, I ran bloat-o-meter
on the novatek module comparing before and after your patch:

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/4 up/down: 0/-8754 (-8754)
Function                                     old     new   delta
elish_csot_init_sequence.d                   758     379    -379
elish_boe_init_sequence.d                    846     423    -423
elish_csot_init_sequence                    9136    5380   -3756
elish_boe_init_sequence                    10192    5996   -4196
Total: Before=33880, After=25126, chg -25.84%

So the new way of defining mipi_dsi_dual_dcs_write_seq_multi() did
indeed give a pretty sweet space savings! :-)

This patch looks good to me now. Thanks for putting up with all my
requests. I know this is a lot bigger than you thought it would be
when you posted your first patch, but I appreciate you sticking with
it!

My plan would be to give this series another week on the list. If
there is no additional feedback then I'll plan to land it.
