Parallel display support for IPUv3 is not yet implemented. What's
missing is a driver that matches to "fsl,imx-parallel-display", calls
vpl_register on its own node and returns the display timings parsed from
device tree in the VPL_GET_VIDEOMODES callback.

You could try the following binding instead. It doesn't use the
"fsl,imx-parallel-display" compatible but the "simple-panel" binding
instead. Since IPU parallel display support is a no-op anyway this
should work. Note that this binding is not compatible with the kernel
since the maintainer refuses to let display timings into the device tree
for simple panels.

panel {
	compatible = "simple-panel";

	display-timings {
		/* your timings here */
	};

	port {
		display0_in: enpoint {
			remote-endpoint = <&ipu1_di0_disp0>;
		};
	};
};

&ipu1_di0_disp0 {
	interface-pix-fmt = "rgb24";
	remote-endpoint = <&display0_in>;
};
