It looks OK.
I guess only hactive, and vactive props of display-timings are used,
maybe some flags?
I wonder if it would not be better to drop display-timings node
and place all props into mipi-dbi-timings or mipi-dbi-settings node.
Or rather all timings props should be put into port/endpoint node with
or without
any container node.
