I haven't followed the discussion on this patch, but it seems rather
excessive to add over 600 lines of code (including tests) to add 2 fixed
modes. And it's very difficult to see from the code what the actual
display mode timings really are, which would be useful for other
developers down the road wanting to use them.

Why not just hardcode the modes?

Yeah, I have kind of the same feeling tbh, but it was asked back on the
v1 to ease the transition of old fbdev drivers, since they will need
such a function:

If that's the case I suggest you just hardcode them for now and leave
the complexity to the developer doing the actual conversion of the fbdev
driver. Who knows when that will happen, but that person will have your
well documented and discussed work to fall back on.

I'd rather not, tbh. We've collectively spent weeks figuring this out,
reviewing it and so on, I very much want to avoid doing this all over
again if it's going to be useful at some point.

Jani also wanted to expose a function and not a raw mode, so this patch
also addresses that:
