I'm not really convinced this is the right approach. You said it
yourself, the panel is using a 24-bits interface, and you just happen
to have a tablet that routed it using a 18-bits interface instead.
That doesn't belong in the driver, especially associated to the
compatible, but where the routing is described: in the device
tree. And given that the panel interface is a 24 bits panel, if we
were to have a default, we should have this one, and not the one
fitting your use case.
