Hi Liu,

Thank you for the patch.

In this case, does the display controller output odd pixels and even
pixels separately to the two LVDS channels, with each channel
effectively be a separate LVDS encoder ? Could you give an example of DT
integration for dual-link LVDS support, with the display controller, two
LDB instances, and a dual-link LVDS panel ?
