I haven't been following the discussions about this patch, so maybe
these have been covered:

OMAP2/3/4/5 all have very similar DSS. Why did you go for omap_4_-fb
driver, not omap-fb driver?

Also HDMI, RFBI and VENC seem to be unsupported. The DISPC parallel mode
you mention is MIPI DPI.

Supporting only the DPI output is "easy", do you have plans to support
the other outputs and external encoders used in many boards? That may
require a more generic approach, with multiple display "entities" in the
pipeline. Not that the first version should support that, but I just
wanted to mention it so that you don't design the driver in too
non-generic manner.
