I think the issue lies in what you left out here: you have another node
aside from the port one, called layers. I *think* the issue is that the
code will now pick up the layers node, and try to use it as a panel,
which will never probe.

I've had a look at all the other bindings though, it seems like this
driver is the only one that can be affected: the anx7625 seems to be the
only other driver that has a child node that isn't either a port or a
panel (aux-bus) but it doesn't use drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge either.
