Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/2] drm/panel: add simple-panel description using DT

Hello Thierry,

I noticed you're describing each new panel with a new entry in the
of_platform_match table and a new compatible string.
I guess you have a good reason to do it this way, because retrieving
panel description from DT would be pretty easy (see this series ;-)).

Could tell me why you chose this approach ?

Best Regards,

Boris
