Here are the patches to convert am335x-evm.dts and am335x-evmsk.dts: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2019-December/247301.html https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2019-December/247594.html I would have added a reference to the note, but since the patches are not yet queued to mainline, I decided against it. The first thing to do before conversion is to check if panel-simple (or some other generic drm panel driver) already supports the used panel. If yes, then the conversion should be quite straight forwards. If not, then the first thing to do is to add support for the used panel into panel-simple.c.

The "ti,tilcdc,panel" binding should not be used anymore, since tilcdc is fully capable of using generic drm panels like panel-simple and panel-common binding. However, the obsolete binding is still widely used in many mainline supported platforms that I do not have access to and who knows how many custom platforms. So I am afraid we have to keep the old bundled tilcdc panel driver around.
