coupled components.

Add a documentation for the bindings.

Allwinner A10 Display Pipeline
==============================

The Allwinner A10 Display pipeline is composed of several components
that are going to be documented below:

TV Encoder
----------

The TV Encoder supports the composite and VGA output. It is one end of
the pipeline.

Required properties:
- compatible: value should be "allwinner,sun4i-a10-tv-encoder".
- reg: base address and size of memory-mapped region
- clocks: the clocks driving the TV encoder
- resets: phandle to the reset controller driving the encoder

- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoint.

TCON
----

The TCON acts as a timing controller for RGB, LVDS and TV interfaces.

Required properties:
- compatible: value should be "allwinner,sun5i-a13-tcon".
- reg: base address and size of memory-mapped region
- interrupts: interrupt associated to this IP
- clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the TCON. Three are needed:
- 'ahb': the interface clocks
- 'tcon-ch0': The clock driving the TCON channel 0
- 'tcon-ch1': The clock driving the TCON channel 1
- resets: phandles to the reset controllers driving the encoder
- "lcd": the reset line for the TCON channel 0

- clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
- reset-names: the reset names mentioned above
- clock-output-names: Name of the pixel clock created

- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoint, the second one the output

The output should have two endpoints. The first is the block
connected to the TCON channel 0 (usually a panel or a bridge), the
second the block connected to the TCON channel 1 (usually the TV
encoder)


Display Engine Backend
----------------------

The display engine backend exposes layers and sprites to the
system.

Required properties:
- compatible: value must be one of:
* allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-backend
- reg: base address and size of the memory-mapped region.
- clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the frontend and backend
* ahb: the backend interface clock
* mod: the backend module clock
* ram: the backend DRAM clock
- clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
- resets: phandles to the reset controllers driving the backend

- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoints, the second one the output

Display Engine Frontend
-----------------------

The display engine frontend does formats conversion, scaling,
deinterlacing and color space conversion.

Required properties:
- compatible: value must be one of:
* allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-frontend
- reg: base address and size of the memory-mapped region.
- interrupts: interrupt associated to this IP
- clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the frontend and backend
* ahb: the backend interface clock
* mod: the backend module clock
* ram: the backend DRAM clock
- clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
- resets: phandles to the reset controllers driving the backend

- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoints, the second one the outputs


Display Engine Pipeline
-----------------------

The display engine pipeline (and its entry point, since it can be
either directly the backend or the frontend) is represented as an
extra node.

Required properties:
- compatible: value must be one of:
* allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-engine

- allwinner,pipelines: list of phandle to the display engine
frontends available.
