What about older SoCs like S5Pv210 ? There is the FIMD IP block in those SoCs
as well. There are also differences in the FIMD IP block across various SoC 
version, so either you need to list the quirks in the bindings or use an
appropriate compatible properties if there are significant differences across 
FIMDs that make them not really compatible.

These are actually 3 interrupts. Can you please document what they are
and in what order should be listed in the interrupts property ?

I don't think this standard property needs to be documented here.

Why this order exactly ? Because currently the driver expects VSYNC 
interrupt specifier in the first entry and it won't work when you put
any other interrupt specifier there ?

The interrupts order really needs to be specified above, otherwise
you need to look at the bindings implementation in the driver to
figure out why it didn't work when you put the interrupt in different
order... see confused and angry faces of developers ? ... :)

If I'm not mistaken we have "Video Frame" (VSYNC), "I80 Interface" 
and "FIFO Level" interrupts here.
