Dual-link LVDS interfaces have 2 links, with even pixels traveling on
one link, and odd pixels on the other. These panels are also generic in
nature, with no documented constraints, much like their single-link
counterparts, "panel-lvds".

Add a new compatible, "panel-dual-lvds", and a dt-binding document for
these panels.

One question: why do we need a "panel-dual-lvds" compatible?
A Dual-LVDS panel is a LVDS panel using two ports, hence still a panel-lvds.

If you're doing this to clearly distinguish, for human readability purposes,
single-link vs dual-link panels, I think that this would still be clear even
if we use panel-lvds alone because dual-link panels, as you wrote in this
binding, does *require* two ports, with "dual-lvds-{odd,even}-pixels" properties.

So... the devicetree node would look like this:

panel {
	compatible = "vendor,panel", "panel-lvds";
	....
	ports {
		port@0 {
			.....
			-> dual-lvds-odd-pixels <-
		}

		port@1 {
			.....
			-> dual-lvds-even-pixels <-
		};
	};
};

+          - required: [dual-lvds-even-pixels]

...Though, if you expect dual-lvds panels to get other quirks in the future,
that's a whole different story and you may actually need the panel-dual-lvds
compatible.

Angelo
