That's a very good point. We had a similar issues in V4L2, with sensors that 
would create several entities. However, in those cases, the sensors would be 
connected to the rest of the pipeline through a single entity :

Sensor Entity 1 -> ... -> Sensor Entity N -> V4L2 pipeline ...

The core code thus had to care about a single sensor entity when building the 
pipeline. We could solve the problem in a similar way for panels, but encoders 
need a more elaborate solution.

I see (at least) two possibilities here, either explicitly describing all 
entities that make the device in DT (as you have proposed below), or creating 
a hierarchy of entities, with parent entities that can contain several child 
entities. I've CC'ed Guennadi, Hans, Sylwester and Sakari to get their opinion 
on the matter.

If I understand this correctly, your LVDS encoder has two independent 
channels. In the general case a device made of multiple entities might have 
those entities chained, so "channel" might not be the best term. "entity" 
might be a better choice.
