[PATCH 0/3] drm/panel: simple: Add mode support to devicetree

[Sean Paul]

Hey all,
Here's a set which allows us to add an "override" mode to the simple
panel dt node. The override mode can be used for devices for which the
typical display timing is not sufficient, yet the overriding mode should
not be applied across the entire platform. 

An example of this (and the motivation) is the Chromebook Plus (kevin).
If the sharp panel on this laptop is run at the mode advertised in the
datasheet (and what is currently in mainline), it creates interference
with the touch digitizer. To fix this, we need to run the pixel clock at
a slightly higher rate (which we can do by increasing the back porches).
This "fix" should not be used on other rockchip devices using this panel
since they might not encounter the same interference.

If an override mode is present, it will be checked against the panel's
display_timing range. When validated, it will be exposed as the
preferred mode along with the 'typical' modes generated from the panel's
display_timing.

This set is based on Linus' master to pick up the edp support in
rk3399-gru-kevin.dts.

Thanks,

Sean
