I think bool should be generally used for things that are on/off, like
interlace. For hsync-active-high & others I'd rather have 0/1 values as
others already suggested.

I think this is commonly called 1080p24.

The comment is not according to kernel coding style. And I'd start the
sentence with a capital letter =).

If "default-timing" property is optional, I don't see any need for the
pr_info above, as it should be business as usual if the property doesn't
exist.
If the default-timing property doesn't exist, wouldn't it be simpler to
get the first subnode, instead of looking one with "timing" name?

Again, I don't think the pr_info is needed if this is a normal case.
Then again, perhaps this could be an error? Why would there be a display
node without any timings?

I don't see you setting disp->default_timing to OF_DEFAULT_TIMING in
case there's no default_timing found.
Or, at least I presume OF_DEFAULT_TIMING is meant to mark non-existing
default timing. The name OF_DEFAULT_TIMING is not very descriptive to
me.
Would it make more sense to have the disp->default_timing as a pointer
to the timing, instead of index? Then a NULL value would mark a
non-existing default timing.

Should this be a pointer to a const array of const data? Is there ever
need to change them after they've been read from DT?

Why do you have these functions in the header file?
