Looks fine, just a few comments in the following.
Should be easy to fix.

Similar bindings uses following pattaern:
properties:
  compatible:
    items:
      - enum:
          - dlink,dir-685-panel
      - const: ilitek,ili9322

See ow an "- enum" is used for the part where we expect to add more
compatible in the future. And const for the fixed part.
Notice the indent - this is right.

add empty line, or rely on the generic description in panel-common.

Maybe group all the ": true" properties.

My personal preference is indent examples with 4 spaces - it increased
readability.
