This should be "fsl,imx51-vpu", and add a "cnm,codahx14".

According to the old imx-vpu-lib code and the vpu_fw_imx51.bin firmware
file, the i.MX51 has a CodaHx14 (0xF00A) as opposed to the i.MX53's
Coda7541 (0xF012).

Yes, the i.MX51 and i.MX53 firmware files are different. So at least an
entry for i.MX51 with the correct firmware file name has to be added.
