I guess my message wasn't clear, no need to lecture me on Device
Trees, although I appreciate
your friendly reminder of what a Device Tree is.

Having said that, the binding is designed to support both decoders and encoders
for instance:

vpu: video-codec@ff9a0000 {
compatible = "rockchip,rk3288-vpu";
reg = <0x0 0xff9a0000 0x0 0x800>;
interrupts = <GIC_SPI 9 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 10 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
interrupt-names = "vepu", "vdpu";
clocks = <&cru ACLK_VCODEC>, <&cru HCLK_VCODEC>;
clock-names = "aclk", "hclk";
iommus = <&vpu_mmu>;
power-domains = <&power RK3288_PD_VIDEO>;
};

Hence the question is why do you splitted the encoder to its own node?

If we have good reasons to have separated Device Tree nodes,
then having interrupt-names = "vepu" for its only interrupt line
doesn't make sense.

The current binding models the idea of decoder and encoder
being the same device. This has never been really really accurate,
as the encoder and decoders have always been more or less independent.

The reason for having them on a single device are mostly historical,
some old devices shared some resource. I don't think this is the case anymore,
but the binding was still modeled to support that.

Hopefully this makes sense!
Thanks,
Ezequiel
