drm/sun4i: tcon: Pass drm_encoder * into sun4i_tcon0_mode_set_cpu
sun4i_tcon0_mode_set_cpu() currently accepts struct mipi_dsi_device * as its second parameter. This is derived from drm_encoder. The DSI encoder is tied to the CPU interface mode of the TCON as a special case. In theory, if hardware were available, we could also support normal CPU interface modes. It is better to pass the generic encoder instead of the specialized mipi_dsi_device, and handle the differences inside the function. Passing the encoder would also enable the function to pass it, or any other data structures related to it, to other functions expecting it. One such example would be dithering support that will be added in a later patch, which looks at properties tied to the connector to determine whether dithering should be enabled or not.
