The display pipeline of the Allwinner A10 is involving several loosely
coupled components.

Add a documentation for the bindings.

+Allwinner A10 Display Pipeline
+==============================
+
+The Allwinner A10 Display pipeline is composed of several components
+that are going to be documented below:
+
+TV Encoder
+----------
+
+The TV Encoder supports the composite and VGA output. It is one end of
+the pipeline.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible: value should be "allwinner,sun4i-a10-tv-encoder".
+ - reg: base address and size of memory-mapped region
+ - clocks: the clocks driving the TV encoder
+
+- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
+  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
+  first port should be the input endpoint.
+
+TCON
+----
+
+The TCON acts as a timing controller for RGB, LVDS and TV interfaces.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible: value should be "allwinner,sun4i-a10-tcon".
+ - reg: base address and size of memory-mapped region
+ - interrupts: interrupt associated to this IP
+ - clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the TCON. Three are needed:
+   - 'ahb': the interface clocks
+   - 'tcon-ch0': The clock driving the TCON channel 0
+   - 'tcon-ch1': The clock driving the TCON channel 1
+
+ - clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
+ - clock-output-names: Name of the pixel clock created
+
+- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
+  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
+  first port should be the input endpoint, the second one the output
+
+Optional properties:
+  - allwinner,panel: phandle to the panel used in our RGB interface
+
+
+Display Engine Backend
+----------------------
+
+The display engine backend exposes layers and sprites to the
+system.
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible: value must be one of:
+    * allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-backend
+  - reg: base address and size of the memory-mapped region.
+  - clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the frontend and backend
+    * ahb: the backend interface clock
+    * mod: the backend module clock
+    * ram: the backend DRAM clock
+  - clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
+  - resets: phandles to the reset controllers driving the backend
+
+- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
+  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
+  first port should be the input endpoints, the second one the output
+
+Display Engine Frontend
+-----------------------
+
+The display engine frontend does formats conversion, scaling,
+deinterlacing and color space conversion.
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible: value must be one of:
+    * allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-frontend
+  - reg: base address and size of the memory-mapped region.
+  - interrupts: interrupt associated to this IP
+  - clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the frontend and backend
+    * ahb: the backend interface clock
+    * mod: the backend module clock
+    * ram: the backend DRAM clock
+  - clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
+  - resets: phandles to the reset controllers driving the backend
+
+Display Engine Pipeline
+-----------------------
+
+The display engine pipeline (and its entry point, since it can be
+either directly the backend or the frontend) is represented as an
+extra node.
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible: value must be one of:
+    * allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-engine
+  - allwinner,pipelines: list of phandle to the entry points of the
+    pipelines (either to the frontend or backend)
+
