Yes, it can be new may be
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/dsi-device.yaml

Yes, that is what I'm saying. DSI sink will send this mode via
mode_flags and the controller act accordingly.  The point here is
these modes are generic across all DSI sink devices so having common
bindings can make it easy for all devices to use. As I said it can be
new, but worth trying - anyway let's see how others are commenting on
this.
