Hi Jyri,
Thank you for the patch.

The "ti,tilcdc,panel" binding should not be used anymore, since tilcdc is fully capable of using generic drm panels like panel-simple and panel-common binding. However, the obsolete binding is still widely used in many mainline supported platforms that I do not have access to and who knows how many custom platforms. So I am afraid we have to keep the old bundled tilcdc panel driver around.

+NOTE: This binding (and the related driver) is obsolete and should not
be used anymore. Please refer to drm panel-common binding (andto a generic drm panel driver like panel-simple).Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/panel/panel-common.yaml(drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-simple.c)How about adding a WARN_ON() in the code when this binding is used ? This could help getting those platforms converted.
I don't see why not, I'll add that.
Thanks Jyro
