Hi Paul,

Thanks for the review.

How about "The VCD can capture a frame from digital video input and
compare two frames in memory, then the ECE will compress the frame
data into HEXTITLE format", is it better?

I used RealVNC version 6.21.1109 to test.
Do I have to add this information in the commit message?

Do you mean dev_info/dev_debug messages of the driver?
If yes, I get these messages from one boot (only dev_info will be
printed in default):

npcm-video f0810000.video: assigned reserved memory node framebuffer@0x33000000
npcm-video f0810000.video: NPCM video driver probed

I can note the datasheet name and revision in the commit message but
can't provide the file link because it is not public.
Is it ok with you?

So what I have to do is replace "u8/u16/u32" with "unsigned int" for
generic local variables as much as possible.
Is my understanding correct?

I'll correct them in the next patch.
