I will send next version like below:

Patch#1 1usec to 1 msec

Patch#2 Move rzg2l_mipi_dsi_set_display_timing() to rzg2l_mipi_dsi_atomic_enable()
after starting hs clock.

Patch#3 Move reset_deassert from phy_init to rzg2l_mipi_dsi_atomic_pre_enable() with below change

if (dsi->rstc) {
ret = reset_control_deassert(dsi->rstc);
if (ret < 0)
return;
fsleep(1000);
}

Patch#4 Move reset_assert from phy_exit to rzg2l_mipi_dsi_atomic_post_disable() to make
the balanced operations.
