Claude review: drm/panel: Add Novatek/Tianma NT37700F panel

Patch Review

The panel driver follows established patterns. A few observations:

> +static void nt37700f_tianma_reset(struct nt37700f_tianma *ctx)
> +{
> +	gpiod_set_value_cansleep(ctx->reset_gpio, 1);
> +	usleep_range(1000, 2000);
> +	gpiod_set_value_cansleep(ctx->reset_gpio, 0);
> +	usleep_range(10000, 11000);
> +}

The reset GPIO is requested with `GPIOD_OUT_HIGH` in probe, meaning the panel starts in reset. The reset sequence asserts (1), waits, deasserts (0), waits. This is consistent with the `unprepare` path which sets the GPIO to 1 (asserting reset). Fine.

> +	dsi->mode_flags = MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO_BURST |
> +			  MIPI_DSI_CLOCK_NON_CONTINUOUS | MIPI_DSI_MODE_LPM;

The mode flags combine video burst mode with LPM for command sequences. This is a standard pattern seen in other panel drivers (e.g., `panel-samsung-sofef00.c`).

Temporarily clearing and restoring `MIPI_DSI_MODE_LPM` to send brightness commands in HS mode is not thread-safe -- if two callers hit this concurrently, the flag manipulation could race. That said, this is a common pattern found in many generated panel drivers and the backlight framework serializes calls through a mutex, so in practice this is fine.

Minor: the copyright year says 2024, though the patch is being submitted in 2026. This is cosmetic and doesn't affect functionality. Also, attributing a generated driver to "The Linux Foundation" may not be accurate -- typically the author of the driver would be listed.

Overall, the driver is straightforward and correct. No functional bugs found.
