The dt binding for Xilinx DRM KMS driver.
Bindings are for h/w, not drivers.
I'll rephrase this.

+Xilinx display pipelines can be designed with hardened video IPs and soft
video
+IPs in programmable logic. This KMS module provides the common
functionality
+of individual subdevice drivers, and glue logics between them.
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Must be "xlnx,kms".
I'll also rephrase the description and rename this to xlnx,display.
+- ports: phandles for CRTC ports, using the DT bindings defined in
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt.
This use of ports is not part of the graph binding.
I'll add more details in the description.
+Example:
- xlnx_drm: xlnx_drm {
compatible = "xlnx,kms";
drm and kms are Linuxisms.
I agree. I'll remove linux subsystem specific terms.
Why do you need this node?
This node is used to represent a display pipeline as a single entity, which can consist of multiple components / IPs. I'll elaborate more per your suggestion.
You generally don't need that. Just have the DRM driver match with the first block in the display pipeline. Then use the OF graph to connect to the other components in the pipeline. It would help to have a block diagram showing the data pipelines and h/w blocks.
