I don't think this is the right way to limit the supported video modes.
There is technically there is no such limit, is there?

If memory bandwidth is limiting the functionality of higher resolutions,
you should use "max-bandwidth" tilcdc device-tree property [1].

Cheers,
Jyri

[1] In "Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/tilcdc/tilcdc.txt":
Optional properties:
- max-bandwidth: The maximum pixels per second that the memory
interface / lcd controller combination can sustain
