I'm not happy with this panel driver stuff anyway. With the legacy
'display-timings' node that provided the timing data directly in the
DTB, every bootloader could pick up the timing data and feed it to
whatever driver it used for the display.
With the panel driver stuff the whole Linux driver has to be replicated
in the boot loader in order to be able to use the same DTB as Linux for
its HW configuration.
And adding a new panel involves recompiling the kernel and the boot
loader, rather than adding the timing data from the panel's datasheet
into the DTB.
