[PATCH 0/8] drm: mxsfb: Allow overriding bus width

Hello,

This patch series adds support to the mxsfb driver for bus width
override. The need came from a hardware platform where a 18-bpp panel
had the R[5:0], G[5:0] and B[5:0] signals connected to LCD_DATA[7:2],
LCD_DATA[15:10] and LCD_DATA[23:18] instead of LCD_DATA[5:0],
LCD_DATA[11:6] and LCD_DATA[17:12]. The bus width, automatically
configured to 18 by querying the panel, is incorrect in this case, and
needs to be set to 24.

To solve this issue, a new bus-width DT property is added to the mxsfb
DT binding. Patch 1/8 first converts the binding to YAML, with a fix for
the compatible string values in 2/8. Patch 3/8 then adds the new
property, and 4/8 renames the binding file to fsl,lcdif.yaml to match
the usual naming convention. I've kept that patch last to make it easy
to drop should should mxsfb.yaml be preferred.

Patches 5/8 to 6/8 then fix the DT sources to match the LCDIF bindings,
as I noticed during the conversion that the compatible strings were
badly managed (see patch 2/8 for a longer explanation). Patch 7/8 drops
an unused clock from DT sources.

Patch 8/8 finally adds support for the bus-width property to the mxsfb
driver.
