Then the video mode timings aren't also a property of the panel.

Which interface mipi and display controller should use would be
decided by lcd panel type: display controller can use i80 interface
based lcd panel, and also mipi controller can use i80 interface based
lcd panel.
In here, the only difference is that lcd panel receives  packets,
which includes video data or command data, packed with mipi protocol
via lane lines or receives video data or command data via parallel
lines.

And the below is LCD types,
        RGB interface panel.
        i80 interface panel.
        MIPI based RGB interface panel.
        MIPI based i80 interface panel.

RGB interface also is called video mode, and i80 interface also is
called cpu mode. In case of omap SoC, it is also called Smart panel.
i80 interface is just one of LCD types. So I think this interface
timings should be handled by frameworks related to mode in same way as
RGB interface.
