Oh come on, seriously?

There is _nothing_ wrong with it, it already reflects what I told you
would be required for generic Dove SoC board video.

As you may have noticed, the RFC node I sent yesterday. Is in _no_ way
different from a functional point of view. I added a video-memory
property, I renamed the compatible string. And I moved clocks property
to the video card *but* as I said in the RFC description:

"This adds a video card node required for rmk's dove_drm driver. Reg
property matches reserved memory region (currently 16M at top of 
memory), clocks property should carry extclk0 for now."

It is a node *required for rmk's dove_drm driver* for you to _test_
that very driver.

Again, there is no DT support in *rmk's driver*! I didn't add those
to the RFC node. I provided a DT node to *test* rmk driver. While
you were busy with complaining about things we already answered,
I did test the driver on both Cubox and D2Plug. Now I can start
with looking into rmk's driver and _suggest_ to fix this or that.

I would be surprised if, lcd1 will ever be capable of driving
1080p60 on a *VGA port*!

Seriously, start _reading_ what we say. I want all those
features I already told you for your driver, in mainline driver
too. All I told you was to prevent you from doing dirty little
Cubox specific hacks that I would have to remove for e.g. D2Plug.

*But* if you ask me if we should take Russell's or your driver
as a basis, the answer is Russell's. Colon.
