drm/imx was exclusively the IPUv3 up until now, which is in fact
maintained outside of drm-misc in its own git tree. This has worked
quite well in the past so even though IPUv3 doesn't see a lot of churn
these days the motivation to change anything to this workflow is quite
low. And yes, the git tree is missing from the MAINTAINERS entry.

For the DCSS driver, if it's going to be maintained by NXP, I figured
it might be easier for Laurentiu to push things into drm-misc than set
up a separate public git tree. But IMHO that's fully up to him to
decide.
