ok, maybe I am misunderstanding you. I think the parameters should be
filled in by the board file on a non-DT setup. But the part in
drivers/gpu/drm/i2c should not pull them directly out of DT, or should
have an arrangement like
#ifdef CONFIG_OF
.. pull params out of DT ..
#else
.. use params passed in from via params struct, which is populated in
board file ..
#endif
to accommodate non-DT builds. (Although I think just having a helper
to populate 'struct tda998x_encoder_params' from DT seems cleaner.)
