Dear Maxime Ripard,
> The current code always registers as a 32 bits display, and uses the
> hardware to drop the MSB of each color to abjust to the interface width
> used by the panel.
>
> This results on 18 bits (and probably 16 bits display as well) in colors
> being displayed poorly, because the MSB are obviously the most important
> bits for each color definition.
>
> The default controller behaviour when using an interface width smaller
> than the color depth is to drop the LSBs of each color, which makes more
> sense because you lose the least important part of the color definition.
>
> So, to fix the colors display, just get back to the default controller
> behaviour.

Did you receive my latest email? Check M28EVK (imx28-m28evk.dts), it uses 18bit
LCD and works without this patch I think.
