Hello Krzysztof,
it seems that this patch requires more explanation, maybe something
that should be part of the commit message, let's see ...

colibri-imx8x is a SoM, it's not a complete self-contained device. The
display touch controller is part of the SoM, however it is kept disabled
since you need an actual touchscreen to make any use of it.

This label would be used where an actual touchscreen is defined, this can
happen with a DT overlay, for example.

DT files from the Linux kernel GIT are used also outside the Linux kernel
sources, see for example U-Boot OF_UPSTREAM [1], to me it's fair to add
a label for an out-of-tree user, am I wrong?
