An LVDS dual-link connection is made of two links, with even pixels transitting on one link, and odd pixels on the other link. The device tree can be used to fully describe dual-link LVDS connections between encoders and bridges/panels. The sink of an LVDS dual-link connection is made of two ports, the corresponding OF graph port nodes can be marked with either dual-lvds-even-pixels or dual-lvds-odd-pixels, and that fully describes an LVDS dual-link connection, including pixel order. drm_of_lvds_get_dual_link_pixel_order is a new helper added by this patch, given the source port nodes it returns DRM_LVDS_DUAL_LINK_EVEN_ODD_PIXELS if the source port nodes belong to an LVDS dual-link connection, with even pixels expected to be generated from the first port, and odd pixels expected to be generated from the second port. If the new helper returns DRM_LVDS_DUAL_LINK_ODD_EVEN_PIXELS, odd pixels are expected to be generated from the first port, and even pixels from the other port.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
