+- gpios: The gpios used to interface with the external LCD panel.
This isn't terribly informative for the user - which GPIOs and in what
order are they specified?  Looking at the code it looks like pin mux
configuration so just some wording saying it's a list of pins to be used
for the framebuffer function.
Ok. I will modify the sentence to mean that it is list of gpios used
by framebuffer controller for data/timing interface with the lcd
panel. Thanks for your review.

Regards,
Thomas.

You probably want to mention that it's for pin muxing, the reason I
didn't get what it meant on first read was that normally GPIO means
specifically the sort of stuff handled by gpiolib.
