From: Chen-Yu Tsai <wens@xxxxxxxx>
Some LCD panels do not support 24-bit true color, or 8bits per channel
RGB. Many low end ones only support up to 6 bits per channel natively.
Add a device tree property to describe the native bit depth of the
panel. This is separate from the bus width or format of the connection
to the display output.
