The datasheet (https://www.keil.com/dd/chip/4210.htm) for both 
AT91SAM9261 and AT91SAM9263 specifies the GUARD_TIME field within the 
PWRCON register. This field is 7 bits wide (bits 1-7) and acts as a mask 
to define the guard time delay.

Hence the maximum value for the guard time for both AT91SAM9261 and 
AT91SAM9263 SoCs is 127 when using the GUARD_TIME field in the PWRCON 
register.

The datasheet doesn't specify the duration of each "frame period." So, 
this value only represents the maximum number of frame periods that can 
be set for the guard time, not the actual time delay in seconds or 
milliseconds.

The bits-per-pixel value can be 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 24.

In the current driver implementation, we have interpreted the wiring
mode represented by ATMEL_LCDC_WIRING_BGR as 'BRG' in the array
atmel_lcdfb_wiring_modes. Considering conventional color representation,
would it be appropriate to consider modifying the existing driver to use
the 'BGR' string instead of 'BRG' for better alignment with standard
naming conventions?

static const char *atmel_lcdfb_wiring_modes[] = {
         [ATMEL_LCDC_WIRING_BGR] = "BRG",
         [ATMEL_LCDC_WIRING_RGB] = "RGB",
};

It seems correctly configured in our dts files but didn't noticed the 
same in the bindings example, thanks for letting me know, I will correct 
it in the next revision.

Thanks, I will add it.
