[PATCH 1/3] video: add simple, transparent, bridge implementation

This enables support for simple bridges, i.e. bridges that can be
used without initialization.

This is e.g. the case with bridges that have persistent configuration,
the kernel has a full-fledged driver to configure the bridge and persist it.

The bootloader then needs to do nothing more. Having such a transparent
bridge allows reusing the kernel device tree without changing the graph
specification.

+Simple display bridge
+=====================
+
+bridge node
+-----------
+
+Required properties:
+	- compatible : "barebox,simple-bridge".
+	- #address-cells : must be <1>
+	- #size-cells : must be <0>
+	- video interfaces: Device node should contain two video interface port
+			    nodes for input and output according to [1].
+			    - port at 0 - bridge input
+			    - port at 1 - bridge output
+
+[1]: dts/Bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt
+
+
+Example:
+	fpga-display-bridge at 0 {
+		compatible = "barebox,simple-bridge";
+		reg = <0>;
+		#address-cells = <1>;
+		#size-cells = <0>;
+
+		port at 0 {
+			reg = <0>;
+
+			ch0_lcd_in: endpoint {
+				remote-endpoint = <&parallel_display_out>;
+			};
+		};
+
+		port at 1 {
+			reg = <1>;
+
+			ch0_out: endpoint {
+				remote-endpoint = <&disp1_in>;
+			};
+		};
+	};
