I want to leave room for possibly running the panel without DSC (at a
lower resolution/refresh rate, or at higher power consumption if there
is enough BW) by not assigning the pointer, if we get access to panel
documentation: probably one of the magic commands sent in this driver
controls it but we don't know which.

On that note I should perhaps reword this.

Ack.

I can't unless either migrating to drm_bridge (is that doable?) or
expand drm_panel.  That's a larger task, but I don't think this driver
is the right place to track that desire.  Should I drop the comment
entirely or reword it?
