I'm not sure about this patch. So I think the basic idea here is that
HDMI will use VGA video mode if, for whatever reason, no better mode is
found out.

After this change, the panel driver doesn't seem to do that. Instead it
uses whatever mode was used previously by the hdmi output driver.

Is the only reason for this patch to clean up the hdmi_panel driver? We
could have a dss helper function which returns the timings for VGA
(well, just a public const variable would be enough), and the panel
driver could use that to initialize the timings struct.
