The reset command is part of the init sequence and it take effect
only if the lcd is powered.
The effect of the bug was that the sequence:
set lcd power_state to FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN
set lcd power_state to FB_BLANK_UNBLANK
Did not produced a complete reboot of the LCD which was showing fuzzy
colours.
This was not experienced before implementing correctly all the LCD power
states with the patch [1]. Since before the patch [1] the regulators were
not touched and the LCD shutdown was reached with a register write. After
the patch [1] a complete boot sequence with an initial reset is needed for
the display every time the LCD is powered up.
