As a drive-by comment, the Toshiba TC358764XBG/65XBG chip can be
configured via both DSI and I2C. The I2C interface requires DSI clock on
the DSI interface to operate. You may not use the interfaces
simultaneously, but provided you protect against races in register
access, both interfaces can be operational at the same time.

Sorry I couldn't find a public spec of the chip to share.

HTH,
Jani.
