I've replied your comments on v2.

Thanks for your review!

As I replied in v2, I may document them if needed.
No Nack/Ack from DT maintainers as of now.

As I replied in v2, they are modelled as separated devices and kinda
accepted by Maxime and Rob.

I'll try to describe more in cover letter.

I've documented all processing units and the other devices in the
main display controller, nothing more.

I'll list all processing units in commit message in next version.

Can you please point out typical ones in patches in question?

Thanks again for your review.
