I have looked a bit closer at the vdec, venc, mmsys and other units. I
have come to the conclusion that the units and subunits should be
rearranged in the device tree. Currently we have a flat list of units,
but really they are hierarchical with top devices and subdevices. Take
vencsys as an example. Instead of:

	vencsys: vencsys at 18000000 {
		compatible = "mediatek,mt8173-vencsys", "syscon";
		reg = <0 0x18000000 0 0x1000>;
		#clock-cells = <1>;
	};

	larb3:larb at 18001000 {
		compatible = "mediatek,mt8173-smi-larb";
		reg = <0 0x18001000 0 0x1000>;
		clocks = <&mmsys MM_SMI_COMMON>,
			 <&vencsys VENC_CKE0>,
			 <&vencsys VENC_CKE1>;
		clock-names = "larb_sub0", "larb_sub1", "larb_sub2";
	};

This should be:

	vencsys: vencsys at 18000000 {
		compatible = "mediatek,mt8173-vencsys";
		reg = <0 0x18000000 0 0x01000000>;
		#clock-cells = <1>;
		ranges;

		larb3:larb at 18001000 {
			compatible = "mediatek,mt8173-smi-larb";
			reg = <0 0x18001000 0 0x1000>;
			clocks = <&mmsys MM_SMI_COMMON>,
				 <&vencsys VENC_CKE0>,
				 <&vencsys VENC_CKE1>;
			clock-names = "larb_sub0", "larb_sub1", "larb_sub2";
		};

		/* The actual video encoder */
		venc:video-encoder@?? {
			compatible = "mediatek,mtxxxx-videoenc";
		};
	};

And really the driver matching "mediatek,mt8173-vencsys" should register
the necessary clocks and reset lines and call of_platform_populate on
the subnodes. The driver should also be a real driver, not something
matched by CLK_OF_DECLARE. The "mediatek,mt8173-vencsys" driver now has
the possibility to manage the toplevel vencsys unit, do runtime pm, turn
the whole thing off and on. Using CCF for abstracting these clocks may
be the right thing, but I believe that we should keep the code for the
toplevel vencsys register space together in a single file and not put
the clk bits in drivers/clk/mediatek/mt8173.c, the reset bits in
drivers/reset/ and the remaining misc stuff in drivers/soc/mediatek/.

So I think we should have a drivers/soc/mediatek/mtk-vencsys.c which
is a regular driver, calls clk_register() for its clocks, calls
reset_controller_register() for the reset bits, provides plain functions
for the remaining bits which are not handled by any Linux framework.
Finally of_platform_populate will register the child devices.

I showed this using the vencsys example, but it's the same for vdecsys,
vencltsys, imgsys and mmsys.
