Dear all,
Those patches are intended to solve an old standing issue on some Mediatek devices (mt8173, mt2701 and mt2712 are affected by this issue).
Up to now both drivers, clock and drm are probed with the same device tree compatible. But only the first driver gets probed, which in effect breaks graphics on those devices.
The MMSYS (Multimedia subsystem) in Mediatek SoCs has some registers to control clock gates (which is used in the clk driver) and some registers to set the routing and enable the differnet blocks of the display and MDP (Media Data Path) subsystem. On this series the clk driver is not a pure clock controller but a system controller that can provide access to the shared registers between the different drivers that need it (mediatek-drm and mediatek-mdp). Hence the MMSYS clk driver was moved to drivers/soc/mediatek and is the entry point (parent) which will trigger the probe of the corresponding mediatek-drm driver.
**IMPORTANT** This series only fixes the issue on mt8173 to make it simple and as is the only platform I can test. Similar changes should be applied for mt2701 and mt2712 to have display working.

Changes in v10: - Update the binding documentation for the mmsys system controller. - Renamed to be generic mtk-mmsys - Add driver data support to be able to support diferent SoCs - Introduced a new patch to move routing control into mmsys driver. - Removed the patch to use regmap as is not needed anymore. - Match driver data to get display routing.
Changes in v9: - Move mmsys to drivers/soc/mediatek (CK) - Do not move the display routing from the drm driver (CK)
Changes in v8: - Be a builtin_platform_driver like other mediatek mmsys drivers. - New patch introduced in this series.
Changes in v7: - Free clk_data->clks as well - Get rid of private data structure
