I certainly have no objections about re-using the video
ports/endpoints DT bindings for the bridges but just wanted to point
out that Kukjin has already merged on his tree the DTS changes for
display on Snow and Peach Pit using the current binding and also sent
the pull request [0] to ARM SoC maintainers since he probably was
expecting this series to make ti for 3.18. So that should be handled
somehow.

Tomi,

I see that Documentation/devicetree/bindings/video/ti,omap-dss.txt
mentions that the Video Ports binding documentation is in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/video/video-ports.txt but I don't
see that this file exists in the kernel [1]. I see though that is was
included on your series adding DSS DT support [2].

Do you know what happened with this file?

Best regards,
Javier
