This patchset adds waveshare 7inch touchscreen panel support
for the StarFive JH7110 SoC.

Patch 1 add new compatible for the raspberrypi panel driver and its dt-binding.
Patch 2 add new display mode and new probing process for raspberrypi panel driver.

Waveshare 7inch touchscreen panel is a kind of raspberrypi panel
which can be drived by raspberrypi panel driver.

The series has been tested on the VisionFive 2 board.
surprisingly i was recently working on the official Raspberry Pi
touchscreen and was able to get it running the new way.

What do i mean with the new way. There is almost nothing special to the
Raspberry Pi touchscreen, so we should try to use/extend existing
components like:

CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_EDT_FT5X06
CONFIG_DRM_TOSHIBA_TC358762

The only special part is the Attiny on the connector PCB which requires:

CONFIG_REGULATOR_RASPBERRYPI_TOUCHSCREEN_ATTINY

So the whole point is to avoid writing monolitic drivers for simple
panel like that.

There is a WIP branch based on top of Linux 6.7-rcX, which should
demonstrate this approach [1]. Unfortunately it is not ready for
upstreaming, but it has been tested on a Raspberry Pi 3 B Plus. Maybe
this is helpful for your case.

Actually i consider panel-raspberrypi-touchscreen.c as a dead end, which
shouldn't be extended.

Btw there are already DT overlays in mainline which seems to use the
Raspberry Pi 7inch panel (without touch function yet) [2].
