A few questions:
1. If I'm doing my math right, you're saying that this panel runs at
30 Hz refresh rate. Truly? While I won't dismiss that as impossible,
it feels unlikely. Specifically:
In [2]: 72600000 / ((1920 + 80 + 190 + 60) * (1080 + 6 + 38 + 8))
Out[2]: 28.50412249705536
In [3]: 80240000 / ((1920 + 80 + 190 + 60) * (1080 + 6 + 38 + 8))
Out[3]: 31.503729878288183
NOTE: I managed to dig up a datasheet for this panel and the datasheet
I have shows it as a 60 Hz refresh rate panel.
2. You're using the "struct display_timing" here instead of the
"struct drm_display_mode". That can be OK, but can I ask why exactly?
3. Are you sure you need to add this entry? Moving forward I'm trying
to encourage people to use the generic "edp-panel". Mostly you'd want
to add a hardcoded panel here if:
a) Devices have already shipped using hardcoded timings and we don't
want to risk breaking something in the field with "edp-panel".
b) You're trying to support some eDP controller that can't handle the
generic "edp-panel". In this case I'm OK with landing changes but I'd
strongly encourage you to update the controller to handle things.

Is it really 6 bpc? The datasheet I dug up claims 16777216 colors
which would be 8 bpc. The EDID from that same datasheet also claims 8
bpc.

Where are your delays? I know in old code these were hard to figure
out from the panel spec, but the kernel doc comments now translate it
into standard eDP terminology so this should be trivially easy for you
to provide.
