The display subsystem representation in the devicetree is different
between the mainline kernel and the NXP kernel.

Try getting the i.MX6 display interface to work with the mainline kernel first.

There are many i.MX6-based boards are supported by the mainline
kernel, which you can use as a reference for adapting your devicetree.
