The need to support some straight-forward VGA panels that are
not adhering to any standard like DPI arise in the ARM RTSM VE
Real-Time Systems Model Virtual Executive. This emulator (which
is not QEMU) does not model any bridge or panel other than
displaying whatever the user defines that they have.
Currently a fake "DPI panel" is used for this with the old
FBDEV driver, but this is wrong as it is not conforming to any
MIPI DPI standards. However the resolution chosen there is
standard VGA, and we can cover this with the simple panel
by simply adding the most common VGA resolutions as a kind
of "simple panel".
In difference from other cases where "simple panel" might be
hiding something more complex (such as a panel driver or bridge)
this case is actually applicable, since we are running inside
a simulation with no real hardware on the output.

+Video Graphics Array
+
+This binding is for simple panels using the standardized VGA resolutions
+defined by de facto standards beginning with the IBM PS/2 in 1987.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be "video-graphics-array"
+
+This binding is compatible with the simple-panel binding, which is specified
+in simple-panel.txt in this directory.
+
+Example:
+
+panel {
+ compatible = "video-graphics-array";
+ port {
+ vga_panel_in: endpoint {
+ remote-endpoint = <&foo>;
+ };
+ };
+};
