Just fyi, you can re-use the nxp-tda998x part independently of tilcdc
(just in case that wasn't clear).

It may be that we need to add some configuration info struct, if for
example there are some differences in video signal mux on the dove
board, but that shouldn't be a big deal.  I figure we can see what is
needed as others start to use it and add as needed.

drv and crtc are the "core" driver... arguably the tfp410 part could
be optional.  I'd prefer *not* as a separate module, as this implies
some independence of module lifetime, which is not true.  I generally
prefer to start simple and add complexity later if someone really
thinks they need it, which is why I avoided adding a bunch of kconfig
options to start with.

hmm, I don't think it was but I'll have to double check that.  At
least if it was it wasn't seeming to cause anything bad, because I did
have "tilcdc,tfp410" in DT..
