  There are different ways of describing the timing data of a panel. The
  devicetree representation corresponds to the one commonly found in datasheets
  for panels.

  The parameters are defined as seen in the following illustration.

  The following is the panel timings shown with time on the x-axis.
  This matches the timing diagrams often found in data sheets.

  Timing can be specified either as a typical value or as a tuple
  of min, typ, max values.
