Novatek nt36672a is a display driver IC that can drive DSI panel. It
is also present in the Tianma video mode panel, which is a FHD+ panel
with a resolution of 1080x2246 and 6.18 inches size. It is found in
some of the Poco F1 phones.

This patch adds the display driver for the IC, with support added for
this tianma fhd video mode panel.

v2: remove ports node, making port at 0 directly under panel at 0 node.
v3: updated to replace port at 0 to just 'port'.
v5: renamed to novatek,nt36672a, since the binding is for the IC and not
      the panel.
v6: v5 review comments incorporated.
    - added enum for the compatible part, since it can be extended in
      future.
    - few cosmetic updates.

+  The nt36672a IC from Novatek is a generic DSI Panel IC used to drive dsi
+  panels.
+  Right now, support is added only for a Tianma FHD+ LCD display panel with a
+  resolution of 1080x2246. It is a video mode DSI panel.
