Hi Devarsh,

Thanks for the patches.

The TRM mentions that the max the VP PLL can go is 150MHz, so maybe you
might need to update this.

That said, as far as I understand, the IP itself can support 165 MHz,
and I am wondering, what would we do if there comes out a new SoC that
uses AM62L DSS as is, but just bumps up the PLL capacity to 165MHz.

It would be odd to have a ditto feats structure with just the frequency
updated.

Also, I don't think we should utilize this as is.

The AM62L common regions is different, and is, at best, a subset of the
AM65x/AM62x common register space.

For example, registers VID_IRQ{STATUS, ENABLE}_0 have been dropped,
along with VP_IRQ{STATUS, ENABLE}_1.

- Which brings to my next concern...

...

Usually, VID1 is the first video pipeline, while VIDL1 remains the
second. Which is why vid1 occupies the index 0, and vidl1 occupies 1 -
even from the hardware perspective.

While AM62L has only one video (lite) pipeline - vidl1, and there is no
vid1, the hardware still treats vidl1 at index 1.

For example, the TRM has defined DISPC_VID_IRQ{STATUS, ENABLE}_1 (and
not _0) in the common region.

So, the vid_order here should be 1, not 0.
