Repeating myself from V1 discussion ... Either is fine by me, but I 
think pixelclk-active, which comes from panel-timings.yaml is closer to 
the video than multimedia bindings.

How does that work in the Yaml file ?

Or the other way around instead ? That is, if the connector_type is 
LVDS, then it is encoder , otherwise its decoder ?
