The VOP2 on the RK3568 has three CRTCS, or video ports (VP) in Rockchip
nomenclature. Each of them can be connected to the different outputs,
like HDMI, MIPI-DSI and so on. In the device tree the CRTCs are
described as of-graph ports with links to the HDMI, MIPI-DSI nodes.
An example limited to HDMI looks like this:

	vop: vop at fe040000 {
		compatible = "rockchip,rk3568-vop";
		vop_out: ports {
			vp0: port at 0 {
				vp0_out_hdmi: endpoint at 0 {
					reg = <0>;
					remote-endpoint = <&hdmi_in_vp0>;
					status = "disabled";
				};

				... MIPI, dP, ...
			};

			vp1: port at 1 {
				vp1_out_hdmi: endpoint at 0 {
					reg = <0>;
					remote-endpoint = <&hdmi_in_vp1>;
					status = "disabled";
				};

				... MIPI, dP, ...
			};

			vp2: port at 2 {
				...
			};
		};
	};

	hdmi: hdmi at fe0a0000 {
		compatible = "rockchip,rk3568-dw-hdmi";
		ports {
			hdmi_in: port at 0 {
				hdmi_in_vp0: endpoint at 0 {
					reg = <0>;
					remote-endpoint = <&vp0_out_hdmi>;
					status = "disabled";
				};

				hdmi_in_vp1: endpoint at 1 {
					reg = <1>;
					remote-endpoint = <&vp1_out_hdmi>;
					status = "disabled";
				};

				...
			};
		};
	};

Theoretically every VP can be routed to every output, but depending on
the board there are some constraints. For example for the three vps
there are only two PLLs for the pixel clock, and the HDMI port is
hardwired to one single PLL. To avoid different VPs setting conflicting
rates on a PLL we can only allow a subset of the possible routes.
