Isn't this the issue that is fixed by changing the memory priority for lcdc?

Thanks, I'm new to drm. From reading the datasheet it seemed to me
that this depends on the resolution. FWIW it seems that most LCDs are
able to adjust to this themselves - I tested with two different
displays and the value I introduced worked on both while the previous
one shifted the image to the right. I'll look into that.

Dropped the refresh rate from the timings node name.
