If I got this right, the property does not enable dual-link
operations by itself, but it needs the next bridge to be operating in
dual link mode (ie. has both LVDS0 and LVDS1 output connected to its
input ports). Is it worth describing it here (or at least clarify the
the property alone does not enable dual link operations).

Apart from that
