Bridge vs. encoder is not a distinction I would make for bindings. It 
would be better if all the HDMI encoders/bridges were grouped together 
rather than in vendor silos/directories. But that's a much bigger 
restructuring and fsl,imx6-hdmi.yaml is already here.

That shouldn't matter for bindings. I do expect the 'ports' will be a 
bit different, so probably not worth trying to combine the schema.
