Thanks for Tomi's comments. 

I agree that we can implement the DRM driver for the DCU. As the bandwidth limitation, I suggest we use the fb driver firstly. On the other hand, the fb driver can meet the application requirement based on this SoC. We'll try to provide the DRM driver when this IP integrated into other SoC. 

Jean-Christophe, Do you have any comments. Thanks.
