Add DT support for panel-dpi.

Looks like this patch did not get merged or am I missing
something?

Yes, I dropped it. None of the boards that I converted used panel-dpi.
There was so much discussions about the display bindings, so I thought
it's better to leave out all but the needed patches.

As you probably are aware, we have at least these boards
needing it before we can remove the omap3 legacy support:

board-am3517evm.c
board-cm-t35.c
board-devkit8000.c
board-ldp.c
board-overo.c

We could probably set the display timings based on the
compatible flag in the driver if that's an issue?

The timings shouldn't be an issue. But there's the backlight GPIO,
currently handled by panel-dpi, which should be removed from the panel.
We should use gpio-backlight for that one.

And then board-omap3pandora.c also needs support for
panel_tpo_td043mtea1_platform_data.

Yep, there's still much to do for DSS DT support. Hopefully it will be
easier now that the core support is there. I'll continue working on the
remaining boards and panels. However, I don't have any of the remaining
boards, so help is of course appreciated.
