This patch enables device tree based discovery support for DP driver. The driver is modified to handle platform data in both the cases: with DT and non-DT. Documentation is also added for the DT bindings. DP-PHY should be regarded as a seperate device node while being passed from device tree list, and device node for DP should contain DP-PHY as child node with property name "dp-phy" associated with it.

Either 'display port' or 'DisplayPort' is commonly used. For clarity, display port would be better.

But from description it is not clear whether it is an index or a mask. Is it different across various SoCs ? Perhaps it's better to name it samsung,enable_mask (in case some SoC need more than one bit) ?
It's the bit mask. It is different across various SoCs. OK, enable_mask would be better.

Yes, you're right.

with 'phandle of dptx_phy node'.

No, it is not changeable. It's a default setting according to eDP panel.

+ LINK_RATE_1_62GBPS = 0x6, LINK_RATE_2_70GBPS = 0x0AIs this really a property of a panel ? Why it is in the PHY node ? Also I can see this is just a single property, so "link rates" is a bit misleading.
Yes, It's a property of LCD panel. It is not in the 'PHY' node, but 'display-port-controller' node. Ajay: Please replace 'link rates' with 'link rate'.

+ -samsung,lane_count: + number of lanes supported by the panel. + LANE_COUNT1 = 1, LANE_COUNT2 = 2, LANE_COUNT4 = 4What do these symbolic names are needed for ? Is lane_count a number or a mask, is this really a _maximum_ number of lanes ? What are the valid values, 1, 2 and 4 ? Or maybe 0x3 is also valid which would indicate that we can use 1 or 2 data lanes ?
These symbolic names are defined in './include/video/exynos_dp.h'. It seems that Ajay used these definitions. 'lane_count' is a number of used lanes of main link which transfer data streams as video. The number of lanes of Main Link is 1, 2, or 4 lanes. It is dependent on eDP panel.

No, it is not changeable. It's a default setting according to eDP panel.
