I do not think that allowing just panel-lvds in the compatible is going
to be fine from the DT maintainer point of view.

Adding a specific compatible will not solve the issue, because we can
connect different kind of display there. Doing this will get rid of the
warning however.

We could remove the node completely, but this would create some
regression we need to figure out how to handle, minimizing the impact.

Unfortunate there is not a perfect solution, IMO the best solution is to
remove the node, but I need to find some time to look into the evil
details.
