I wasn't aware that they were any different. Where is the equivalent
binding for DRM/KMS panels?

I guess one must have been merged first and the second one screwed
up by not reusing the first one :(

Yes.

I don't know if I will be able to convert the AMBA CLCD driver from
fbdev to DRM/KMS but I was hoping I would not have to change the
DT to redescribe the same hardware for that, but now it sounds
like that is a consequence...

Yours,
