OK I agree there is something wrong here, for one I don't think setting
ti,am3352-lcdc would do anything anyway given the driver only reports
.compatible with ti,da830-lcdc so at the very least the document is
wrong.  I will look into this and decide what is the best way of
resolving this.  I will go ahead and submit the series without the DT
support anyway and then I will look into this.
