+* Mediatek Media Data Path

+Media Data Path is used for scaling and color space conversion.
+
+Required properties (all function blocks):
+- compatible: "mediatek,<chip>-mdp"

What is this, ...

It is used to match platform driver.

Would structuring things like this work instead:

{
  compatible = "mediatek,<chip>-mdp";
  ranges = ...;
  {
    compatible = "mediatek,<chip>-mdp-rdma";
    ...
  };
  {
    compatible = "mediatek,<chip>-mdp-wdma";
    ...
  };
  ...
};

I am trying to modify it as structured node. But mdp failed to convert
image. Under debugging.

and this?

It is string format of HW block. <chip> could be "mt8173", and
<function> are "rdma", "rsz", "wdma", and "wrot".

List what are valid values of <chip>.

<chip> - mt8173. There should be other chip added in future.
I will change the property as blow:

- compatible: "mediatek,<chip>-mdp"
        Should be one of
        "mediatek,<chip>-mdp-rdma"  - read DMA
        "mediatek,<chip>-mdp-rsz"   - resizer
        "mediatek,<chip>-mdp-wdma"  - write DMA
        "mediatek,<chip>-mdp-wrot"  - write DMA with rotation
        <chip> - could be 8173


If don't need <chip>, I also can change it as below. It is more clear.

Up to you. Depends on how many different chips you will have.

I will replace "<chip>" with "mt8173"

It is still not clear which properties apply to which compatible
strings.

I found out the document for larb.
I will change the property as below:

- mediatek,larb: must contain the local arbiters in the current Socs,
see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/memory-controllers/mediatek,smi-larb.txt
  for details.

That's good, but not what I meant. You still have properties which
only apply to certain blocks, but are listed for all blocks like
mediatek,vpu for example.

I find out other properties' document. 

- clocks: device clocks, see
  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/clock-bindings.txt for
details.
- power-domains: a phandle to the power domain, see
  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_domain.txt for details.
- mediatek,vpu: the node of video processor unit, see
  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/mediatek-vpu.txt for details.
