Add a some #define/enum and go to town. Example with sub-optimal names below:

enum foobar {
 LVC_OF_DISP_INTF,
 LVC_OF_DISP_CLRSPC,
...
};

static struct logicvc_of_property logicvc_of_properties[] = {
[LVC_OF_DISP_INTF]  = {
               .name           = "xylon,display-interface",
...
       },
[LVC_OF_DISP_CLRSPC] = {
               .name           = "xylon,display-colorspace",
...
       },
...
}

While the callers are:

       ret = logicvc_of_property_parse_u32(of_node, LVC_OF_DISP_INTF,
                                           &config->display_colorspace);
       ret = logicvc_of_property_parse_u32(of_node, LVC_OF_DISP_CLRSPC,
                                           &config->display_depth);
