I decided to specify the companion in DT regardless of which operating
mode is used, as it's a property of the LVDS encoder, not of the
operating mode. Furthermore, I can foresee setups where the mode would
be selected dynamically at runtime. Our development boards don't allow
that as they hardcode the mode using DIP switches, but nothing would
prevent the mode selection signals to be connected to GPIOs. I thus
think lvds->companion should point to the companion unconditionally, and
lvds->dual_link should select the operating mode. The dual_link field is
currently set at probe time as I have no need for dynamic configuration
of the mode and no mean of testing it, so I decided not to implement
dynamic switching yet.

I don't yet, but nothing prevents a panel from operating in dual mode,
even if not implemented yet. That's why I've move this check out of the
bridge/panel conditional code.
