Isn't it kept by this patch ?

Here -----------------^

The binding now support any of "fsl,imx23-lcdif", "fsl,imx28-lcdif" or
"fsl,imx6sx-lcdif" alone, or "fsl,imx6sx-lcdif" with another
device-specific compatible string. The driver supports the three base
compatible strings, for V3, V4 and V6 of the IP core.
