This driver has no way to handle damage, the reason the drm_gem_fb_create_with_dirty() was used was because I had the ambition that the driver would only send out updates to DSI command displays whenever something changed, so as to minimize traffic. It turns out this ambition with command mode isn't working in practice because all the MCDE does is to create a continuous stream of DSI commands and while it is possible to send single frame updates with it, it's not been worthwhile. So we are just setting up continuous updates.

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.
