Describing the output connection in the device tree sounds like a good
idea indeed. The bus-width property could be used for this, maybe along
the lines of
https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/20201013020619.GG3942@pendragon.ideasonboard.com/.

If, for a given wiring of the output, different formats could be used,
then we would need to select them at runtime.
