[RFC 0/4] drm/mipi-dbi: Support panel drivers

[Josef Luštický]

Hi Noralf,
the patch series looks good, see comments in the patch emails.

One question: is there a general mechanism to tell a driver not to use
parallel RGB even though
the display supports it and "port" is specified in the device-tree?
