 Required properties:

+    * allwinner,sun8i-h3-de2-mixer1

Again, please explain why we need to have different compatibles
here. If it's only about the number of planes, this should be dealt
with a property, not a compatible.

Only mixer0 has "VEP" and write-back support, at least on H3.

What is that VEP? writeback support can also be expressed by a
property.

I don't know what VEP is...

Ok. Let's forget about it at the moment then, especially if it's
optional, we can add support for it later.

But we are really facing different cores, like sun50i-a64-mmc
and sun50i-a64-emmc.

Not really. The eMMC and MMC controllers are *very* different. They
behave (slightly) differently, the eMMC controller has more signals
(8-bit bus, data strobe), can run at a higher frequency. You cannot
have exactly the same driver (or rather code path) to handle
both. Therefore the need for some other compatible.

This is not the case for the mixer here. The thing that differs
between instances is not behaviour but data. And we provide most of
the data through DT.
