+Drivers for the second video output of the GE B850v3:
+   STDP4028-ge-b850v3-fw bridges (LVDS-DP)
+   STDP2690-ge-b850v3-fw bridges (DP-DP++)
+
+The video processing pipeline on the second output on the GE B850v3:
+
+   Host -> LVDS|--(STDP4028)--|DP -> DP|--(STDP2690)--|DP++ -> Video output
+
+Each bridge has a dedicated flash containing firmware for supporting the custom
+design. The result is that, in this design, neither the STDP4028 nor the
+STDP2690 behave as the stock bridges would. The compatible strings include the
+suffix "-ge-b850v3-fw" to make it clear that the driver is for the bridges with
+the firmware specific for the GE B850v3.
+
+The driver is powerless to control the video processing pipeline, as the two
+bridges behaves as a single one. The driver is only needed for telling the host
+about EDID / HPD, and for giving the host powers to ack interrupts.
Bindings describe h/w not drivers. Rephrase in terms of what control the 
h/w provides.
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible : should be "megachips,stdp4028-ge-b850v3-fw" or
+    "megachips,stdp2690-ge-b850v3-fw".
Reformat with one per line.
+  - reg : should contain the main address which is used to communicate with
+    the bridge over i2c.
Just "reg : I2C bus address" is sufficient.
+  - interrupt-parent : phandle of the interrupt controller that services
+    interrupts to the device (stdp4028-ge-b850v3-fw)
+  - interrupts : one interrupt should be described here, as in
+    <0 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH> (stdp4028-ge-b850v3-fw)
+  - ports : should describe the video signal connection between the host
+    and the bridges.
You need to define how many ports and what each port is.
