Dear Krzysztof,

I sincerely apologize for taking up your time to review and respond to
this patch. The maintainers' review comments are very important to us,
so we will never ignore them, there must be some misunderstanding in
this process.

Add support for MT8196 video encoder which uses VCP (Video Co-
Processor)
for firmware management. Unlike previous platforms that use
SCP/VPU, MT8196
requires VCP to load and execute the video encoding firmware, with
the
encoder communicating through VCP to perform encoding operations.
Again, read review from v2. Subject is still wrong.
Here "read review from v2"
From the reviews of v2 and v3, my understanding is that the patch lacks
details, so we add more description for current modification, for 'VCP'
usage. So we are very grateful if you could provide a `correct Subject
` example for us, thanks a lot.
You received one at v2.

Add the "mediatek,mt8196-vcodec-enc" compatible string and
introduce
the "mediatek,vcp" property to reference the VCP device, which is
required for MT8196 encoder operation.

And here still did not implement the comment. So basically you did
not
implement fully v2 and v3.
If you are mean about the `else statement`, I left a comments and want
to get an explanation from you, if you feel that my reply is
unsatisfactory or incorrect, please let me know.

The key point is that our patch can satisfy you and get a Reviewed-by
from you.
Neither your answer, nor commit description here are actually ANSWERING
to my comment at v3. If you answer with irrelevant/unrelated comment,
the reviewer's feedback stays. OR explain please with different words
why other devices have vcp but your commit msg says they do not have vcp.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
