Ah yes, good point. In the end I couldn't decide which one was the correct one ... My feeling is that it's the display's one, as hardware wise the power is necessary for the display, not the framebuffer. > >> +- enable-transparency-bit: if framebuffer colorspace reserves a bit for >> + transparency > > That doesn't belong in the device tree. > >> +- enable-greyscale-cmap: true if palette is a grayscale based instead of color > > I suspect this doesn't belong in the device tree either. Does this > specify the pixel format of the memory framebuffer? Yes, both these values specify the pixel format. I was thinking this was a hardware capability of the IP, I was wrong, just cross-checked. I'll remove these 2 properties. >> + enable-transparency-bit = <0>; >> + enable-greyscale-cmap = <0>; >> + #address-cells = <1>; >> + #size-cells = <1>; > > What are the #address/size-cells needed for? Copy-paste from another binding, atmel's I think.

I think the bus-width should be here. It represents the number of data lines between the SoC and the panel.
