I think we can safely use different compatible string for tm2e - it uses
different display IC controller - s6e3hf2, driver will provide timings
based on it.
As far as I examined available specs/docs there is no reliable register
which can be used to safely distinguish it on runtime, but the docs I
have are far from completeness.
