Isn't the panel format supposed to match what the encoder's output
should be aiming for? In my case, that would be RGB666, so the idea
would be specifying both MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB666_1X18 and
MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X24 in a list of supported bus formats for the
panel. This way, both my setup and RGB888 setups can be supported.

Well, we already have bus-format defines on the DRM side and it feels
like mapping these directly in device-tree would be more useful as a
description of the hardware than just having the bus width.
