The helper uses the MIPI_DCS_SET_TEAR_SCANLINE, although it's currently
using the generic write. This does not look right.

Perhaps some platforms don't distinguish between the two writers?

Robert, can you please test this against the only user - the Raydium
RM67191 panel driver that you introduced.

Thanks

Vinay, can you confirm if this is a genuine typo or there's something
really subtle happening.
this has been tested on nexus 7 with jdi panel. I did not understand what is the typo here?
We need to use DC’s write instead of generic write?
