I have LVDS working on apq8064, but it requires fixes in the MMCC
driver, in the MDP4 driver and in DTS. I need to clean up them first
before even attempting to send them out. Also a PWM/LPG driver would
help as otherwise the power supply is quick to be overloaded by the
backlight.

Nevertheless, LVDS/LCDC-only MDP4 is a valid usecase, but it has to be
handled in the driver rather than in the core lib.
