Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Medium] The `memory-region` and `memory-region-names` properties for the Video Protection Region (VPR) were added to the Tegra234 NVDEC binding but omitted from the older NVDEC binding (`nvidia,tegra210-nvdec.yaml`) which covers Tegra210, Tegra186, and Tegra194. Other hardware blocks on these older chips (such as VIC and DC) already document and use `memory-region` for the VPR, indicating that the hardware shares the same capability. Failing to update the related YAML files in the same family causes schema validation to fail for complete device trees.

dt-bindings: gpu: host1x: Document memory-regions for NVDEC

The video protection region is a reserved memory region that can be used
for secure video playback. NVDEC can access this region to decode images
into securely.

[Severity: Medium]
Should these properties also be added to the older NVDEC binding
(nvidia,tegra210-nvdec.yaml) which covers Tegra210, Tegra186, and Tegra194?

Other hardware blocks on these older chips (such as VIC and DC) already
document and use memory-region for the Video Protection Region, indicating
that the hardware shares the same capability.

If a device tree for Tegra210, Tegra186, or Tegra194 correctly specifies
the Video Protection Region for NVDEC, will it fail schema validation
because the properties are undocumented and additionalProperties: false
is set in the older binding?

For the record: we'll add this to the Tegra210 NVDEC bindings in due
time. It's currently only been tested on Tegra234, hence why only that
binding is updated.
