DRM is a Linuxism that doesn't belong in the binding.

Are these nodes a single block in the h/w? If not, you should describe
the connection of sub-nodes with of-graph instead.

What the ADV7533 binding looks like is still being discussed.
"encoder-slave" is certainly DRM specific and not how it should be done.
Most likely, this needs to use the of-graph ports.

Also, the ADV7533 connection is specific to HiKey. This binding should
just generically describe how any bridge or panel is connected.
