If follow this point, the current DW_MIPI also has not been tested for 
confirm that it

can really work with VOP2, so you should also make it depends on 
ROCKCHIP_VOP.

I think the current solution is just a workaround to make your patch 
pass the kernel compile

but not reflect the real situation.
