Subject: [PATCH v2 4/5] [media] exynos-mscl: Add DT bindings for M-Scaler
driver

This patch adds the DT binding documentation for the exynos5

You may want to say to which specific SoC it applies.

based M-Scaler device driver.

+* Samsung Exynos5 M-Scaler device
+
+M-Scaler is used for scaling, blending, color fill and color space
+conversion on EXYNOS5 SoCs.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be "samsung,exynos5-mscl"

What is an exact name of this IP in the datasheet ?

If Exynos5410/5420 have same IP,
"samsung,exynos5410-mscl" for M Scaler IP in Exynos5410/5420"

Else,
Compatible: should be one of the following:
(a) "samsung,exynos5410-mscl" for M Scaler IP in Exynos5410"
(b) "samsung,exynos5420-mscl" for M Scaler IP in Exynos5420"

Yes, except I suspect "mscl" is incorrect. It sounds like an unclear
abbreviation of real name of the IP. It likely should be "mscaler".

+- reg: should contain M-Scaler physical address location and length.
+- interrupts: should contain M-Scaler interrupt number
+- clocks: should contain the clock number according to CCF

Hmm, this sounds like a Linux specific term in the binding. Perhaps:

 - clocks: should contain the M-Scaler clock specifier, from the common
	   clock bindings

?
+- clock-names: should be "mscl"
+
+Example:
+
+	mscl_0: mscl@0x12800000 {

s/0x//

+		compatible = "samsung,exynos5-mscl";

"samsung,exynos5410-mscl";

+		reg =<0x12800000 0x1000>;
+		interrupts =<0 220 0>;
+		clocks =<&clock 381>;
+		clock-names = "mscl";
+	};
+
+Aliases:
+Each M-Scaler node should have a numbered alias in the aliases node,
+in the form of msclN, N = 0...2. M-Scaler driver uses these aliases
+to retrieve the device IDs using "of_alias_get_id()" call.

So except in debug logs and for selecting variant data (which is same for
all IP instances) are the aliases used for anything else ?
I suspect you could do without these aliases. Device name includes start
address of the IP register region, so that could be used to identify the
M-Scaler instance in the logs.
