Yes, will move to Soc dtsi in next submits.

i'm working on write a v4l2-m2m driver for dma2d of stm32 to support
pixel conversion
alpha blending between foreground and background graphics.

as you know, some soc's engineer trying to add this function to drm system.

do you know st's planning about soc's hardware accelerator driver on stm32mp?
such as chrom-art, will add to drm subsystem via ioctl to access, or to v4l2,

thanks.
