Indeed, this compatible string comes from the DSS series.

On the other side, looking at
drivers/video/omap2/displays-new/connector-hdmi.c from the DSS series
[1], the compatible string is "omapdss,hdmi-connector", which makes me
wonder which one should be used :) BTW, "omapdss" seems a strange
prefix, isn't it?

Tomi, any inputs?
