No - this is wrong.  You have a 16bpp display.  bpp is the number of bits
in the framebuffer between two successive pixels.  It is not the number of
bits used for the pixel information.

The only case where you have a 12bpp display is if you have two pixels
packed into three bytes.

What you actually have is this arrangement:

111111
5432109876543210
....RRRRGGGGBBBB

where '....' are unused.

So, bpp = 16.  In order to work out whether you want RGB565, RGB555 or
RGB444, you have to look at the pixel format being requested in the
bitfield information.  I'd suggest looking at var->green.length:

                /*
                 * Green length can be 4, 5 or 6 depending whether
                 * we're operating in RGB444, RGB555 or RGB565 mode.
                 */
		if (var->green.length == 4) {
			var->blue.length = 4;
			var->red.length = 4;
		} else {
			var->blue.length = 5;
			var->red.length = 5;
			if (var->green.length != 5 && var->green.length != 6)
				var->green.length = 6;
		}
