The value assigned to `timeout` below, `reg_values[PLL_TIMER] / fin`,
is an `unsigned long`. It compiles thanks to `__careful_cmp()` in
`max()`, but the result is silently narrowed to `unsigned int`. Please
make this `unsigned long timeout` instead.

`fin` is used earlier in this function as the PLL reference clock in
Hz, and is printed by dev_dbg(). Overwriting it here with a completely
unrelated value -  the APB bus clock in MHz - is confusing when
debugging. Please use a separate variable:

unsigned long bus_clk_mhz;
...
bus_clk_mhz = clk_get_rate(driver_data->clk_data[0].clk) / HZ_PER_MHZ;

Also, there is already a `driver_data` local at the top of the
function which the rest of the function uses. Only the newly added
code dereferences `dsi->driver_data->` directly, which is
inconsistent.

This is the main problem: the condition is inverted.

ait_for_completion_timeout() returns 0 on timeout, and the number of
remaining jiffies (> 0) on completion. As written, this reports an
error and returns 0 exactly when the PLL *did* stabilize, and silently
succeeds when it timed out.

Since samsung_dsim_set_pll() returning 0 makes its caller
samsung_dsim_enable_clock() bail out with -EFAULT, the display would
fail to come up entirely the moment a PLL_STABLE interrupt actually
arrives.

    if (!wait_for_completion_timeout(&dsi->pll_stabilized,
                                   usecs_to_jiffies(timeout))) {

The reason this still passed testing is the second issue below: the
PLL_STABLE interrupt never fires in the first place. The two bugs are
masking each other.

One more thing - this removes the only user of
driver_data->pll_stable_bit. The field declaration in the header and
all seven driver_data initialisers are now dead. Please drop them in
the same series. (has_legacy_status_reg is still used by
samsung_dsim_init_link(), so that one should stay.)

Two problems here.

First, DSIM_INT_PLL_STABLE is masked in INTMSK, so this interrupt can
never be delivered. The only place that writes INTMSK is the
SW_RST_RELEASE path just above:

        unsigned long mask = ~(DSIM_INT_RX_DONE |
                               DSIM_INT_SFR_FIFO_EMPTY |
                               DSIM_INT_SFR_HDR_FIFO_EMPTY |
                               DSIM_INT_RX_ECC_ERR |
                               DSIM_INT_SW_RST_RELEASE);
        samsung_dsim_write(dsi, DSIM_INTMSK_REG, mask);

DSIM_INT_PLL_STABLE is not in that list, so it stays masked. And
Exynos 7870 has wait_for_reset = 1, so samsung_dsim_init() runs:

        samsung_dsim_wait_for_reset()   <- runs this handler, programs INTMSK
        samsung_dsim_enable_clock()     <- calls samsung_dsim_set_pll()

meaning PLL_STABLE is guaranteed to be masked by the time set_pll()
runs. As a result this patch performs no PLL stabilization wait at
all, and instead sleeps for the full timeout on every enable. Because
of usecs_to_jiffies() resolution, 100us rounds up to at least one
jiffy - 4ms at HZ=250, 10ms at HZ=100. That is a new latency
regression compared to the old polling loop.

Please add DSIM_INT_PLL_STABLE to the INTMSK list. It would also be
safer to program INTMSK explicitly right after reset, so that SoCs
with wait_for_reset = 0 (which never reach this handler path) are
covered too.

Second, the early return swallows concurrent events. `status` can have
several bits set at once, and everything has already been cleared
write-1-to-clear in INTSRC above. If PLL_STABLE and SFR_FIFO_EMPTY are
raised together, the samsung_dsim_transfer_finish() handling is lost
permanently and that transfer stalls until its own timeout. The
pre-patch code handled all three bits in one condition and fell
through, so it did not have this problem.

Please make the handling non-exclusive:

        if (status & DSIM_INT_PLL_STABLE)
                complete(&dsi->pll_stabilized);

        if (!(status & (DSIM_INT_RX_DONE | DSIM_INT_SFR_FIFO_EMPTY)))
                return IRQ_HANDLED;
