I'm not describing a specific board design but rather SoC capabilities
(this dtsi is SoC related not board related), and the sama5d3 SoC
supports 4 different RGB output modes through the RGB connector.

If you take a look at patch 7, you'll see that I chose mode 3 (which is
RGB888), and given this mode the HLCDC driver (atmel_hlcdc_panel.c) will
request the appropriate pin state:

atmel,panel = <&panel 3 0>;


Best Regards,

Boris
