Correct.

How about the following ?

- renesas,companion : phandle to the companion LVDS encoder. This property is
  mandatory for the first LVDS encoder on D3 and E3 SoCs, and shall point to 
  the second encoder to be used as a companion in dual-link mode. It shall not 
  be set for any other LVDS encoder.
