arm-soc people have become very obtuse with respect to changes to any
patches to arch/arm/boot/dts, and complain loudly if any changes to
that directory do not go through them as separate patches.

What this means is that your patch is unacceptable and needs to be split
up.

The choices seem to be to either break imx-drm by splitting the patch in
two, thereby ending up with the two dependent changes being merged
entirely separate, resulting in breakage while one or other is merged,
or to add the RGB666 support, wait for that to hit mainline, then
update the DT files, wait for that to hit mainline, then fix the BGR666
support.  That'll take around six to nine months (two to three months
per release cycle.)

Or arm-soc could come to their senses and realise that they do not have
sole ownership over arch/arm/boot/dts.
