I believe there's three separate questions here:

A) is this a Hantro instance with more than just JPEG encoding?
B) is this the same as the other[1] Hantro instance, just with a bigger
   offset for the encoder?
C) if A is true and B is false, does this also have decoders?

I think I can only answer B). I do not think fdee0000 is the same hardware
instance as fdea0400. They are in different power domains (yes, this one
being in the RGA PD is correct according to downstream code, TRM and my
own testing). They also have their own MMU each.

Your findings point towards A) being true. I'd love to be able to just
throw a mainline VP8 or H.264 driver at it to check, but that sadly does
not exist yet. Upon checking the TRM again, it seems it documents
registers for H.264 as well.

However I can do this to answer C), and I will once I get the time.
It would be somewhat surprising if there was a hidden third H.264
decoder on this chip.

I'll also CC Kever Yang from rockchip, maybe he can shine some light on
this.
