Add a section that describes dt-bindings for peripherals that support
MIPI DSI, but have a different bus as the primary control bus. Add an
example for such peripherals.

Are there any panels with no control bus? I've never seen one, but it
should be possible if LVDS panels can power on without commands.

DSI panels generally require sending at least a couple of DCS commands to be
exit sleep mode and get powered on. I guess I can rewrite the above paragraph
to include peripherals which have no control bus at all.
