[PATCH] ARM: dts: imx6sx-sdb: Add DRM panel, power-enable and backlight support

[PATCH] ARM: dts: imx6sx-sdb: Add DRM panel, power-enable and backlight support

[Marco Franchi]

It is preferred to use the panel compatible string rather than passing 
the LCD timming in the device tree.

So pass the "sii,43wvf1g" compatible string, a new driver for the Seiko 
Panel, which describes the parallel LCD.

This new driver needs two power supply, so pass 'dvdd-supply' and 
'avdd-supply', which makes the kernel to turn on the LCD on is own.

Also, pass the 'backlight' property as described in 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/panel/simple-panel.txt

The Subject could be improved to something like: Convert from fbdev to
drm bindings

Typo: timing

Please remove the "a new driver for the Seiko Panel".

I would remove this too.

I have sent a patch that removes the regulators from simple-panel.

Please use linux-next when you send a v2.
