You don't have to recompile the kernel, you could just set the venc type
in the board file depending on a boot parameter.
for users of a consumer device, so add support for switching VENC type
at runtime over a new sysfs file venc_type.
I really dislike adding new custom sysfs entries for omapdss, and I'd
like to avoid them if at all possible. Do you need to change the venc
type during runtime, or is it enough that it can be set during boot?
