Hi Tomi,
Thank you for the patch.

Should you in that case drop the panel-dpi compatible string too, as the
panel-dpi bindings require panel timings in DT ?
Yeah sounds like if panel-dpi is no longer usable for this device it
should be dropped from the compatible list.
Ok, I agree.
Looking at the dts files, panel-dpi is used in a bunch of boards. But we even have 3 dts files with
panel-dpi, without the detailed panel model in compatible...
Fixing those will break the compatibility with old dtbs and new kernel, unless we add
timings-from-dt to a panel driver that handles panel-dpi.
