So as is evident, I have things in my mind that should be improved. Maybe
the most important question for short term future is:

Can we add DSS DT bindings for OMAP4 as unstable bindings? It would give us
some proper testing of the related code, and would also allow us to remove
the related hacks (which don't even work quite right). However, I have no
idea yet when the unstable DSS bindings would turn stable.

If we shouldn't add the bindings as unstable, when should the bindings be
added? Wait until CDF is in the mainline, and use that?
I don't think we should add any temporary bindings as it's going to be
a pain to support those in the long run. I suggest you initially just
stick to established bindings for the basic hardware IO address and
interrupts etc, then those should still be valid with the generic panel
bindings later on.

Regards,

Tony
