Any comments on this?

Also added Manfred, Tomi and Boris to CC which previously attended in
similar discussions.

Previous discussions:

I think one of the main observation so far was that the pixel clock
polarity is not a property of the mode, and therefor does not fit into
the DRM_MODE_FLAG. This has been pointed out nicely by Russel:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.dri.devel/96240/focus=96260

Embedded displays connected through parallel bus make use of the
bus_formats field in drm_display_mode. This field defines what kind of
bus format the display requires. This patch follows that idea and adds
bus_flags. bus_flags can be used to define specific bus properties
required by the display, such as pixel clock or data enable polarity...

Note that this solution has been briefly discussed on IRC:
