The DSI controller for the 8MM and 8MN is not the same as the DSI
controller on the 8MQ, but the LCDIF controller should be compatible.

There have been several attempts to support the 8MM DSI, but none of
them have been accepted for various reasons.

The latest was found here [1], but others [2]  and [3] , when used
together, do something similar.

If memory serves, the main issue has to do with the fact that the DSIM
controller in the 8MM and 8MN is also present in one of the Samsung
processors, and the goal is to rework those drivers so we'll have one
driver that supports both Samsung progressors and NXP instead of
having two duplicate drivers doing the same thing. When whatever
driver is chosen is ready, it'll be likely that the LCDIF will use
power-domains = <&disp_blk_ctrl MX8MM_DISPBLK_PD_LCDIF> and the DSI
node will use power-domains = <&disp_blk_ctrl
IMX8MM_DISPBLK_PD_MIPI_DSI> to pull their respective devices out of
reset and enable the gpc.
