So far I see only a single patch, what are the "future truncation
bugs" you are talking about?

...

This is an unclear change. Where did u64 come from? Why do we even
need a 8-byte buffer when we only do 4-byte operations?

        write_reg(par, 0x0000);
        par->fbtftops.read(par, rxbuf, 4);

Perhaps you need to read a datasheet for this panel and come up with a
better understanding?
