The bus_format is not right. If you look at your logging this panel
will result in a warning.

Look at the following code:
       case DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_LVDS:
                WARN_ON(desc->bus_flags &
                        ~(DRM_BUS_FLAG_DE_LOW |
                          DRM_BUS_FLAG_DE_HIGH |
                          DRM_BUS_FLAG_DATA_MSB_TO_LSB |
                          DRM_BUS_FLAG_DATA_LSB_TO_MSB));
                WARN_ON(desc->bus_format != MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB666_1X7X3_SPWG &&
                        desc->bus_format != MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X7X4_SPWG &&
                        desc->bus_format != MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X7X4_JEIDA);
                WARN_ON(desc->bus_format == MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB666_1X7X3_SPWG &&
                        desc->bpc != 6);
                WARN_ON((desc->bus_format == MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X7X4_SPWG ||
                         desc->bus_format == MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X7X4_JEIDA) &&
                        desc->bpc != 8);
                break;

Here you see that for an LVDS connector we expect at least one bus_flag
- this is OK.
You can also see that for bus_format only a selected few are valid.
You need to investigate and pick the right one here.

One way to find out is to check the driver default as this is likely
selected when you specify an invalid bus_format like in the patch.

If you look for example in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/panel/lvds.yaml
then you can see a graphical representation of the formats. This should
help you pick the right one.
