By DE being inactive for a different number of pixel clock cycles during
the vertical and horizontal blanking periods.

Yes, we do. Depending on the board, we use a SN75LVDS83B or a SN65LVDS84.

The reason for using this approach was that the panels covered by
this patch seemed not to be compatible with Flatlink 3G, which meant
driving them directly from the AM35xx SDI serial interface was not possible.
We unfortunately do not get to select which LVDS deserializer is
used at the panel side..
