Yes, this version of the controller which am working on does not have
DPN_SampleCtrl2 register for SampleIntervalHigh Field and has registers
for programming offset2 does indeed indicate that these ports are
reduced ports.

However looks like new versions of the this controller does support full
data ports.

I can add more flexibility in bindings by adding qcom,dport-type field
indicating this in next version.

Yep, BlockPackingMode is missing. 1.3 version of this controller only
supports Block Per Port Block mode.

I guess this can be derived with in the driver by using compatible
string, I can add some notes in the binding to make this more explicit.
I will also reword offset1/2 description to include transport window
within frame

Its 48x16 in this case.
