Thank you for the review. I verified both reported issues and addressed
them in v2.

For dual-link DSI configurations, intel_dsi->pclk and afe_clk() describe
the per-link bandwidth, while the previous calculation used the full
horizontal total. This made the calculated line time twice the actual
per-link line time and provided only about half of the required 400 us
vertical blanking interval.

v2 now calculates the line time using a per-link horizontal total by
dividing htotal by two for dual-link configurations.

The second DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL() call also used line_time_ns, a u64 value,
as its divisor. This does not match the macro's u32 divisor contract.
v2 replaces it with DIV64_U64_ROUND_UP(), which supports a 64-bit
numerator and divisor.

The changes were tested on a Huawei MateBook E with a Tiger Lake GPU and
a 2560x1600 RGB888 dual-link front-back command-mode DSI panel.

Before v2, the driver programmed a vtotal below vsync_end and reported:

i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* Invalid vsync_end value
i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR*
[CRTC:171:pipe A] mismatch in hw.pipe_mode.crtc_vtotal
(expected 1710, found 1622)

With v2, the per-link line time is approximately 8.18 us. The driver
requests 49 blanking lines, providing approximately 400.9 us of vertical
blanking and programming vtotal to 1649.

After a clean build and boot:

  - vtotal is programmed to 1649
  - Invalid vsync_end is no longer reported
  - no divide error or kernel Oops occurs
  - no FIFO underrun, GPU hang, or atomic update failure is reported
  - the DSI connector and display pipe initialize successfully

The existing modeset verification differences between the mode timings
and command-mode transcoder timings remain unchanged and are outside the
scope of this patch.

Changes in v2:
  - Use the per-link htotal when calculating dual-link DSI line time.
  - Use DIV64_U64_ROUND_UP() when dividing by the u64 line_time_ns.
  - Preserve the existing bpp selection for compressed and uncompressed
      configurations.

Testing notes:

The corrected dual-link calculation removes the Invalid vsync_end error
and provides the required 400 us vertical blanking interval. A slight
intermittent display jitter is still visible, so the dual-link line-time
error was not the sole cause of the previously reported jitter.

TTY switching and suspend/resume can also leave the internal panel
blank. These appear to involve separate fbcon and DSI command-mode
resume paths and are not addressed by this patch. They will be reported
and investigated separately.
