Strictly speaking this is a binding for PXA display controller, not a
Linux FB driver. There are lots of "framebuffer" and "DRM" bindings
which I'm trying to curb.

Please put in bindings/display/ as I'm consolidating all the display
related bindings there[1].

No differences in h/w for any of the chips?

This is memory that can't be used for anything else? We already have
reserved-memory for this if it is just RAM. There's also a binding for
on-chip SRAM which should probably be used if the memory is usable for
other things.

This should not be specific to PXA, but for this panel. This should be
in bindings/display/panel/.

If lcd-type is smart-panel, then this node would not make sense.
