This driver is omapdrm specific. But I don't want the dts file to have
omapdrm specific compatible strings, so that the dts files do not have
to be changed when in the future we move to common DRM panel drivers

So:

- In the .dts, we have compatible = "tpo,td028ttec1"
- At early boot time, we append "omapdss," to compatible strings for
panels connected to the DSS node.
- The omapdrm specific drivers match to "omapdss,tpo,td028ttec1"
