Why do you duplicate what's in display/lvds.yaml?

I don't think any of the other properties from display/lvds.yaml currently make any sense to be put into simple-panel, thus I selectively picked this one.

If there is a way to selectively pick only the data_mapping, please let me know and I send a V2


This also just made 'data-mapping' valid on non-LVDS panels.

what is the canonical way of restricting the data-mapping property to LVDS panels only? Or ist the proper way to go to move the panel I use (innolux,g101ice-l01) to its own yaml file, include panel-simple.yaml and leave the others alone? I think other LVDS panels might benefit from this series though, which is why I think it makes sense to add the property to all LVDS panels.


gentle ping. How do you suggest should I proceed here? Maybe pulling the data-mapping definition in a separate file and include it in both files?

Can I enable the property selectively, e.g. only on the innolux,g101ice-l01 panel, in order not to enable it on non-LVDS panels or on LVDS-panels which might not support it?

Best regards
Johannes
