I guess a more correct description would be 
"panel-dsi is a fallback in a similar way that panel-dpi is in panel-dpi.yaml .."?

I guess I see this a generic fallback, that handles any dsi panel as long as the correct timing etc is specified in devictree, similar to what panel-dpi is in panel-dpi.yaml
Maybe phrasing it similar to panel-dpi.yaml is better?
