NACK.

Device trees are supposed to be used for describing the hardware, not
for software configuration.  Besides, the driver already supports a
command-line parameter for the color depth.  Your patch just overrides
that parameter (default_bpp) with a device tree property.

module_param_named(mode, fb_mode, charp, 0);
MODULE_PARM_DESC(mode,
        "Specify resolution as \"<xres>x<yres>[-<bpp>][@<refresh>]\" ");
module_param_named(bpp, default_bpp, ulong, 0);
MODULE_PARM_DESC(bpp, "Specify bit-per-pixel if not specified in 'mode'");
module_param_named(monitor, monitor_string, charp, 0);
MODULE_PARM_DESC(monitor, "Specify the monitor port "
        "(\"dvi\", \"lvds\", or \"dlvds\") if supported by the platform");
