Now the drm driver only test on rk3288, and future when we add compatible for rk29xx, we

IMHO it's vital to keep a logical separation between the video display=20
hardware and the graphics processor on SoCs.
Sure, the graphics processor maybe change in different solutions,=C2=A0 logical separation is that we
try to keep.
