The IMX8MQ got two VPUs but until now only G1 has been enabled.
This series aim to add the second VPU (aka G2) and provide basic
HEVC decoding support.
Why are you adding this directly to drivers/staging/media/ and not
drivers/media/?  Why can't this just go to the main location and not
live in staging?

G2/HEVC is added inside the already exiting Hantro driver, it is "just"
an other codec from Hantro driver point of view.
In addition of that v4l2-hevc uAPI is still unstable.
One goal of this series is to have one more consumer of this v4l2-hevc
uAPI so maybe we can claim it to be stable enough to move away from staging
and then do the same for Hantro driver. That would be a great achievement !
