I don't find this commit in the new glamo driver.
Can be releated to the problem?

  Fixed the LCM driver state transition delay and pixel clock issue
   
        Space transition between sleep-in and sleep-out of at least
        120 ms as mentionned in the spec. Also, made sure the LCM
        is moved into sleep state before the pixel clock is turned off.
        To do so, I've modified glamo-fb to send FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN before
        turning off the pixel clock. Also fixed various violation of coding
        style. This patch should reduce the risk of white screen.
