Hi Steffen,

Thanks for the patch.

Shouldn't this option should be automatically selected through a select 
statement in other options that depend on it instead of manually selected ? 
Same for the DISPLAY_TIMING option in 1/8.

There's so little code here, do you think it would be a good idea to merge 
patches 1/8 and 4/8 and have a single Kconfig option ?

As in 1/8, I try to keep #include's sorted alphabetically, but I won't push 
for it here either :-)

unsigned int for index ?

No need to initialize dt to NULL.

I wonder whether this really deserves a pr_err() here. Would this be a caller 
bug, or can there be valid use cases where this function would return an error 
?
