No. The _device_ is declared in some cubox-setup but the _driver_ goes
into drivers/gpu/drm. Reading vendor provided kernel code may be
misleading as they often just put all stuff in arch/arm/mach-something.

The device for tda998x yes, but not the driver. Anyway, Russel decided
to have tda998x probed by his drm_driver.

The connection of Dove LCD and tda998x is _not_ Cubox specific, it is
also on the D2Plug. To be precise, even "Dove LCD" is not Dove specific
as you can find the very same controller on other Marvell SoCs with
little differences.

So in the end, we will have a DT node for the HW controllers found
in Dove SoCs, a node for TDA998x, and a node for the video card, i.e.
_how_ lcd controllers, external encoders, clocks, maybe audio, ...
are hooked up on that specific board.

There is so much to take care of like pixel format on lcd pins driving
an external encoder (_not_ only tda998x), what gpio pin is connected to
TDA interrupt line, one or two lcds, ...

The corresponding drivers _will_ take care of it .. but in the future.
All I try to make sure is that driver architecture does not prevent us
from e.g. having two lcds plus dcon later on. Or allows to reuse
dove-drm on pxa where only one lcd but no dcon is available.
