Decoder input LVDS format is a property of the decoder chip or even
its strapping. Add DT property data-mapping the same way lvds-panel
does, to define the LVDS data mapping.

Hi Marek,

Thank you for the patch.

The information could also be derived by the driver from the compatible
string in the case when this is an intrinsic property of the device (or
when it's configurable by software), but the fact that it can also be
controlled by strapping makes a DT property needed. We may want to limit
the usage of the DT property to the strapping case though, but I don't
have a real preference here, so I'm fine with this approach.

Unless I'm mistaken, you can't have identically named properties at the
same level (multiple 'if' at the root level). You can group them in a
'allOf' property.

Should we make the property required for lvds-decoder ? We need to
support backward compatibility in the driver, but from a DT bindings
point of view, should all new DTs require the property ?

You'd soon end up piling up compatible strings like the panel-simple 
does, I don't think that scales. Besides, there are bridges where you 
can pick the mapping with a strap, and then the compatible string is no 
longer enough.

I think so.
