At a high level, I'd expect your patch to be based upon Matthias's
series, AKA the 4 patches from:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220316172814.v1.1.I2deda8f2cd6adfbb525a97d8fee008a8477b7b0e@changeid/

I'll leave it up to you about whether you care to support eDP on the
old CRD1/2 or just on CRD3. Personally I'd think CRD3 would be enough.

Then, I'd expect your patch to mostly incorporate
<https://crrev.com/c/3379844>, though that patch was written before
aux-bus support so the panel would need to go in a different place.

Stephen already gave some comments and basing on Matthias's patches
will be a pretty big change, so I probably won't comment lots more.

As Stephen pointed out, it should be called "panel".
