[RESEND RFC PATCH 0/7] sun8i H3 HDMI glue driver for DW HDMI

[added media mailing list due to CEC question]

This patch series adds a HDMI glue driver for Allwinner H3 SoC. For now, only
video and CEC functionality is supported. Audio needs more tweaks.

Series is based on the H3 DE2 patch series available on mailing list:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2017-August/522697.html
(ignore patches marked with [NOT FOR REVIEW NOW] tag)

Patch 1 adds support for polling plug detection since custom PHY used here
doesn't support HPD interrupt.

Patch 2 enables overflow workaround for v1.32a. This HDMI controller exhibits
same issues as HDMI controller used in iMX6 SoCs.

Patch 3 adds CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT to hdmi clock.

Patch 4 adds dt bindings documentation.

Patch 5 adds actual H3 HDMI glue driver.

Patch 6 and 7 add HDMI node to DT and enable it where needed.

Allwinner used DW HDMI controller in a non standard way:
- register offsets obfuscation layer, which can fortunately be turned off
- register read lock, which has to be disabled by magic number
- custom PHY, which have to be initialized before DW HDMI controller
- non standard clocks
- no HPD interrupt

Because of that, I have two questions:
- Since HPD have to be polled, is it enough just to enable poll mode? I'm
mainly concerned about invalidating CEC address here.
- PHY has to be initialized before DW HDMI controller to disable offset
obfuscation and read lock among other things. This means that all clocks have
to be enabled in glue driver. This poses a problem, since when using
component model, dw-hdmi bridge uses drvdata for it's own private data and
prevents glue layer to pass a pointer to unbind function, where clocks should
be disabled. I noticed same issue in meson DW HDMI glue driver, where clocks
are also not disabled when unbind callback is called. I noticed that when H3
SoC is shutdown, HDMI output is still enabled and lastest image is shown on
monitor until it is unplugged from power supply. Is there any simple solution
to this?

Chen-Yu,
TL Lim was unable to obtain any answer from Allwinner about HDMI clocks. I think
it is safe to assume that divider in HDMI clock doesn't have any effect.

Branch based on linux-next from 1. September with integrated patches is

Thanks to Jens Kuske, who figured out that it is actually DW HDMI controller
and mapped scrambled register offsets to original ones.
