Hi,

I saw Cristian Ciocaltea's proposed basic driver for the Synopsys DW
HDMI QP transmit (TX) facility on the Rockchip RK3588 and noticed that
it had seen some critique and thought I'd help it along a little by
making some of the changes that others had suggested in the discussion
thread. This package is mostly like his(?) original but features the
following changes suggested by Conor Dooley and Heiko Stuebner:

Please stop doing this!  

I appreciate your intention to help, but this is not the proper way of
doing it.  This is a work-in-progress series and you should have asked
before taking over.  Please do not interfere with other people's work
without having a preliminary agreement with the author(s).

Additionally, before submitting any other patches, you should get 
familiar with the process - see [1] for a starting point.

 * Documentation for the device tree bindings specifies the various
   clocks explicitly in both the general (synopsys,dw-hdmi-qp.yaml)
   and Rockchip-specific (rockchip,rk3588-dw-hdmi-qp.yaml) files.

Why? Did you read [2]?

 * Changed the compatibles for the RK3588 VO0 and VO1 GRFs in the
   Device Trees (rk3588-base.dtsi) to reflect their different natures.

This has been already handled - see [3].

and some of my own changes:

 * Tweaked the driver code slightly - mostly organizational, but also
   added a mutex around device access in the dw_hdmi_qp_... method
   that was present in the downstream BSP driver which might have been
   necessary to prevent thread bugs.
 * Improved grammar & punctuation in some of the English on the
   Kconfigs and output messages.

Let me know how you like it. I hope this is suitable enough for kernel
integration as I'd really like to be able to get some of the newest
kernels having video bringup out of the box. 

That's definitely not suitable as you made lots of other mistakes while
preparing the patches, i.e. preserving authorship, missing commit
descriptions, SoB tags, etc.

Regards,
Cristian
