I could have searched a long time ^^' (Fortunately there is the mailing list!)

I tried to add the simple panel but I do not get any framebuffer?

Here is the output of devinfo panel.13:
Driver: simple-panel
Bus: platform
Device node: /panel
panel {
        compatible = "simple-panel";
        status = "okay";
        display-timings {
                clock-frequency = <0x895440 0xe4e1c0>;
                hactive = <0x1e0>;
                vactive = <0x110>;
                hfront-porch = <0x2 0x2 0x52>;
                hback-porch = <0x2 0x2 0x29>;
                hsync-len = <0x2 0x29 0x29>;
                vback-porch = <0x1 0x2 0xb>;
                vfront-porch = <0x1 0x2 0xe3>;
                vsync-len = <0x1 0xa 0xb>;
                pixelclk-active = <0x1>;
                hsync-active = <0x0>;
                vsync-active = <0x0>;
                de-active = <0x1>;
        };
        port {
                enpoint {
                        remote-endpoint = <0x3d>;
                        linux,phandle = <0x2b>;
                        phandle = <0x2b>;
                };
        };
};

So it seems that the driver is loaded, but there is no entry point for
the 'userspace'.

OK, good to know.
