*** BLURB HERE ***

This patch series add YAML DT binding and V4L2 sub-device driver 
for mediatek MT8188 AIE. AIE is the ISP unit in the SoC,it's used
to detect faces on an image stored in dram. Mainly used for the 
camera's Face Detection function of MT8188.

Leaving the fact that this driver is *far* from being upstream quality, there's
something missing that is essential for reviewers to even try to help you here.

What does this hardware do, in depth?

I get it, it's giving out "face detection" functionality, okay, but what are we
supposed to feed to it? An image? A stream? Encoded? Decoded? Size limitations?

What is it supposed to output?
An image? A stream? Polygons? With or without text?

....too many questions, and I'm afraid that this should not even be a V4L2 driver,
or a generous part of it should not, anyway... maybe.

With such a huge driver, you should at least provide an extensive overview of what
you are trying to implement and how the user(/kernel)-facing part is supposed to
work.

Regards,
Angelo
