This series adds support for multi hardware decode into mtk-vcodec, by first
adding component framework to manage each hardware information: interrupt,
clock, register bases and power. Secondly add core thread to deal with core
hardware message, at the same time, add msg queue for different hardware
share messages. Lastly, the architecture of different specs are not the same,
using specs type to separate them.

I don't think it's a good idea to introduce the component API in the
media subsystem. It doesn't seem to be maintained, IRC there's not even
a maintainer for it, and it has some issues that were never addressed.

It would be really important to avoid it. Is it really needed in the
first place?

Thanks,
