Ok I've done some more testing, the result being that I'm a bit of an
idiot.

The cyan tint only appears on console text. Running any sort of program
that actually used the display worked as intended. Setting the bpp as 16
actually made all the colors muted when you actually used the display,
so it is clearly the wrong "solution".

Since no one actually uses a hardware tty on a device like this, the
issue is kinda pointless. So I'm gonna resend the panel adding patch
without the bpp hack and with the correct name.
