Inverted related to what? And isn't this a bool? Pixel clock is either
normal (whatever that is), or inverted. It can't be "not used".

I guess normal case is "pixel data is driven on the rising edge of pixel
clock"? If that's common knowledge, I guess it doesn't need to be
mentioned. But I always have to verify from the documentation what
"normal" means on this particular panel/soc =).

+All the optional properties that are not bool follow the following logic:

+    <0>: low active
+    omitted: not used on hardware
Perhaps it's obvious, but no harm being explicit: mention that the bool
properties are off is omitted.

And I didn't read the rest of the patches yet, so perhaps this is
already correct, but as I think this framework is usable without DT
also, the meanings of the fields in the structs should be explained in
the header files also in case they are not obvious.
