This adds a device-tree binding document that specifies the properties
used by the Sunxi-Cedurs VPU driver, as well as examples.

+Device-tree bindings for the VPU found in Allwinner SoCs, referred to as the
+Video Engine (VE) in Allwinner literature.
+
+The VPU can only access the first 256 MiB of DRAM, that are DMA-mapped starting
+from the DRAM base. This requires specific memory allocation and handling.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible	        : "allwinner,sun4i-a10-video-engine";
+- memory-region         : DMA pool for buffers allocation;
+- clocks	        : list of clock specifiers, corresponding to entries in
+                          the clock-names property;
+- clock-names	        : should contain "ahb", "mod" and "ram" entries;
+- assigned-clocks       : list of clocks assigned to the VE;
+- assigned-clocks-rates : list of clock rates for the clocks assigned to the VE;
+- resets	        : phandle for reset;
+- interrupts	        : should contain VE interrupt number;
+- reg		        : should contain register base and length of VE.
+
+Example:
+
+reserved-memory {
+	#address-cells = <1>;
+	#size-cells = <1>;
+	ranges;
+
+	/* Address must be kept in the lower 256 MiBs of DRAM for VE. */
+	ve_memory: cma at 4a000000 {
+		compatible = "shared-dma-pool";
+		reg = <0x4a000000 0x6000000>;
+		no-map;
+		linux,cma-default;
+	};
+};
+
+video-engine at 1c0e000 {
+	compatible = "allwinner,sun4i-a10-video-engine";
+	reg = <0x01c0e000 0x1000>;
+	memory-region = <&ve_memory>;
+
+	clocks = <&ccu CLK_AHB_VE>, <&ccu CLK_VE>,
+		 <&ccu CLK_DRAM_VE>;
+	clock-names = "ahb", "mod", "ram";
+
+	assigned-clocks = <&ccu CLK_VE>;
+	assigned-clock-rates = <320000000>;
+
+	resets = <&ccu RST_VE>;
+
+	interrupts = <GIC_SPI 53 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
+};
