This looks reasonable to me, but I think you only want this
implementation if the "no-hpd" property _isn't_ present. In other
words:

if (!of_property_read_bool(np, "no-hpd"))
pdata->aux.wait_hpd_asserted = ti_sn_aux_wait_hpd_asserted;

Essentially:

* If "no-hpd" is present in ti-sn65dsi86 then we'll assume that HPD is
handled by the panel driver via a GPIO or a "no-hpd" there (which will
cause the panel driver to wait the maximum duration).

* If "no-hpd" isn't present in ti-sn65dsi86 then HPD is actually
hooked up and thus the panel driver _won't_ handle it.

Does that seem right? Presumably this should be explained by comments.
