There's no support for OF graphs in simple-panel, so this is unused,
isn't it?

Actually I use it in my atmel_hlcdc_ouput implementation to figure out
the link between a panel and a device connected on the RGB/DPI bus. 

That's kind of weird and one of the reasons why I can't make myself like
the OF graph bindings. It requires drivers for one device to reach into
the device tree node of some other device and look for content. Or put
another way, a DT node for a panel that works on one platform doesn't
work on another because the display controller needs additional DT
content that isn't required by the original binding for the panel.
