Or anything else - like a RGB666 - just connecting to GND the unused
pins.

It's not really the colorspace this property.

tc358768 is a parallel RGB to DSI bridge, it has 24 bit parallel input
line.

The way this lines are connected is configurable with this parameter, if you
look at mode 0 and 1 they all allow to have a RGB888 or a RGB666 or a
RGB565 mapping. This just configure some internal mux, it's not strictly
about the RGB mode.

The description for mode 2 was copied from the datasheet, and I agree
this is really about having a RGB565 on the first 16 parallel input
pins.

Honestly I do not know what is going to happen with PD[23-16] if they
are not connected to GND, given that the component does not know the
parallel input bus width it might as well sample those pins in some
un-documented way.
