Let's reorganize how we init and turn on the reference clock in the
code to allow us to turn it on early (even before pre_enable()) so
that we can read the EDID early. This is handy for eDP because:
- We always assume that a panel is there.
- Once we report that a panel is there we get asked to read the EDID.
- Pre-enable isn't called until we know what pixel clock we want to
use and we're ready to turn everything on. That's _after_ we get
asked to read the EDID.
NOTE: the above only works out OK if we "refclk" is provided. Though I
don't have access to any hardware that uses ti-sn65dsi86 and _doesn't_
provide a "refclk", I believe that we'll have trouble reading the EDID
at bootup in that case. Specifically I believe that if there's no
"refclk" we need the MIPI source clock to be active before we can
successfully read the EDID. My evidence here is that, in testing, I
couldn't read the EDID until I turned on the DPPLL in the bridge chip
and that the DPPLL needs the input clock to be active.
Since this is hard to support, let's punt trying to handle this case
if there's no "refclk". In that case we'll enable comms in
pre_enable() like we always did.
I don't believe there are any users of the ti-sn65dsi86 bridge chip
that _don't_ use "refclk". The bridge chip is _very_ inflexible in
that mode. The only time I've seen that mode used was for some really
early prototype hardware that was thrown in the e-waste bin years ago
when we realized how inflexible it was.
Even if someone is using the bridge chip without the "refclk" they're
in no worse shape than they were before the (fairly recent) commit

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
