Drop "with value of 1-4" because it is redundant, but instead explain what this property is about. "Restrict output" is not yet enough.
Restrict the number? Or choose specific lanes? Why it cannot be data-lanes from video-interfaces?

==> DP output bandwidth depends on data-lane-count, so the number of output data-lane-count will restrict output bandwidth.
In this dt-binding we don't have output endpoint, so use another property name to configure.
If need to use data-lanes, where can we put in this dt-binding?

Test your patches before sending.
