It mean that v4l2 async also can't be used?

I'm not objecting your suggestion every time, for our driver is
designed for component api, need to spend a lot of time to change it in
many platforms. We need to get a final solution for this architecture,
or it's not easy to change all patches in the feature.

1. Each a node should respect a HW node. Defining a complex node that
contain multiple register is not better, for they belong to different
hardware. Different platforms has different hardware count, mt8195 has
five hardwares.
2. Another reason is from the IOMMU point, the vcodec HW include core
and lat hardwares, each of them connect to the independent IOMMU
hardware for mt8195, can't write all iommu ports together, or hardware
can't access dram data, so we must separate them.

For these limitation, can't combine all hardware together. I will write
the hardware diagram in next patch.

Thanks,
Yunfei Dong
