[PATCH 0/2] Remove unused variant and code clean up

[Benjamin Gaignard]

"nxp,imx8mq-vpu" variant has been tagged as deprecated since 4 years
now. This series remove it and make some context's fields useless so
remove them too.

[PATCH 1/2] media: verisilicon: Remove deprecated variant

[Benjamin Gaignard]

"nxp,imx8mq-vpu" is tagged as deprecated since:
commit f3116f2e52e6 ("media: dt-bindings: media: nxp, imx8mq-vpu: Split G1 and G2 nodes")
merged since v5.17-rc1.
There is more reference to it since that.
Remove for driver and Documentation to clean up the code.

[Severity: High]
Does removing this compatible string break backward compatibility for older
device trees? The driver will silently fail to probe for the VPU on systems
using older Device Tree Blobs that only use the nxp,imx8mq-vpu compatible
string.

[Severity: Low]
Since nxp,imx8mq-vpu is removed from the match table, does this leave a dead
backward compatibility block in hantro_probe()?

drivers/media/platform/verisilicon/hantro_drv.c:hantro_probe() {
	...
	/*
	 * Support for nxp,imx8mq-vpu is kept for backwards compatibility
	 * but it's deprecated. Please update your DTS file to use
	 * nxp,imx8mq-vpu-g1 or nxp,imx8mq-vpu-g2 instead.
	 */
	if (of_device_is_compatible(pdev->dev.of_node, "nxp,imx8mq-vpu"))
		dev_warn(&pdev->dev, "%s compatible is deprecated\n",
			 match->compatible);
	...
}

If an older DTB with only nxp,imx8mq-vpu is used, the device won't probe and
the block is never reached. If a node happens to include both the new valid
string and the deprecated one, the driver will probe via the valid string, but
this block will execute and incorrectly print that the valid string is
deprecated.

[Severity: Low]
Does the removal of imx8mq_vpu_variant leave behind unreferenced variables
and functions?

The imx8mq_vpu_codec_ops array, imx8m_vpu_g1_reset(), and imx8m_soft_reset()
are no longer used anywhere. Additionally, the ctrl_base member in
struct hantro_dev is never assigned anymore, and the extern declaration of
imx8mq_vpu_variant in hantro_hw.h still exists.

media: verisilicon: Remove useless internal fields

This commit removes the reg_names and num_regs fields from struct
hantro_variant and simplifies the register mapping in hantro_probe(). It
replaces the array of reg_bases with a single reg_base pointer since
multiple register regions are no longer used.

[Severity: Low]
Is this ctrl_base field still needed?

With the removal of imx8mq_vpu_variant and imx8mq_vpu_hw_init in a prior
patch, vpu->ctrl_base is no longer initialized. This leaves dead code in
imx8m_soft_reset() which attempts to read from it:

drivers/media/platform/verisilicon/imx8m_vpu_hw.c:imx8m_soft_reset() {
	...
	val = readl(vpu->ctrl_base + CTRL_SOFT_RESET);
	...
}

This is now mathematically unreachable because the only caller,
imx8m_vpu_g1_reset(), is referenced by imx8mq_vpu_codec_ops, which is also
orphaned. Could ctrl_base and the associated dead code be removed?

[Severity: Medium]
Since a prior patch in this series removed "nxp,imx8mq-vpu" from
of_hantro_match, will the deprecation check further down in hantro_probe()
print incorrect warnings?

If a device tree node contains both the new "nxp,imx8mq-vpu-g1" and the
old "nxp,imx8mq-vpu" compatibles, it will probe successfully with the new
compatible. However, the check in hantro_probe():

drivers/media/platform/verisilicon/hantro_drv.c:hantro_probe() {
	...
	if (of_device_is_compatible(pdev->dev.of_node, "nxp,imx8mq-vpu"))
		dev_warn(&pdev->dev, "%s compatible is deprecated\n",
			 match->compatible);
	...
}

will still trigger because the old string is in the fallback list. It then
prints match->compatible (which resolves to "nxp,imx8mq-vpu-g1") as
deprecated, which is factually incorrect.

Could this orphaned check be removed to avoid misleading kernel logs?
