[PATCH v5 0/3] media: imx-jpeg: Assign a single slot

[Ming Qian (OSS)]

From: Ming Qian <ming.qian@xxxxxxx>

This IP includes a jpeg wrapper and a jpeg engine, the wrapper is
working on descriptor based manner. It supports up to 4 slots, each slot
can have its own chained descriptors. Host won't configure the engine
directly, but fill some descriptors to encode or decode one jpeg
picture. Then configure the descriptors to certain slot register. The
jpeg wrapper will schedule between different slots. When some slot is
finished, the slot interrupt will be triggered. The purpose of slot is
that engine can be shared across multiple VMS and os.

Currently, power domains and interrupts are enabled for all 4 slots, but
only one slot is used. There is no benefit in using more that one slot
from within the same OS, as the slots are scheduled in round-robin
manner and not executed in parallel.

Use the property "nxp,slot" to assign a single slot, and just expose the
parts of the h/w for the assigned slot. For example, only put slot 1's
power-domains entry in the DT when slot 1 is assigned. If not specified,
0 is used by default.
