I second the first proposal. The TCON structure has not changed since
the A10. Allwinner just removed the unused channels. Channel 1 is
removed from the first TCON, and channel 0 is removed from the second
TCON. So Allwinner is more or less committing to a static mapping for
the display pipeline outputs.
