Why is that a problem? It's just a property name.

There are data-lanes and clock-lanes properties in the
video-interfaces.txt file by the way. It would be nice if that document
could be updated for displayport and DSI (e.g.  clock-noncontinuous or
link-frequencies) or even just mention in there that these can apply to
DSI and displayport too.
