When mmsys is a system controller, I prefer to place mmsys in
drivers/soc/mediatek, and it share registers for clock, display, and mdp
driver. This means the probe function is placed in
drivers/soc/mediatek ,its display clock function, mdp clock function are
placed in drivers/clk, display routing are placed in drivers/gpu/drm,
and mdp routing are placed in dirvers/video.
