There are existing nodes for the DSI host node. Please find them in arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6qdl.dtsi and arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6q.dts. The DSI host node contains two child nodes for i.MX6DL and another two for i.MX6Q. Each child node has a reg property embedded.


property, but the child nodes are ports pointing to dedicated CRTCs.
So, this patch phases out the child nodes with input-port property before
adding DSI devices for them and updates the MIPI DSI bus OF binding
documentation.

Sorry, but NAK. There's no need for this special-case. I'll go into more
detail in response to patch 09/15.

Thanks for reviewing the patches.

Any idea how to handle the special case? The existing child nodes for the DSI host node do have the reg properties embedded.
