Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 0/9] Add MT8173 Video Decoder Driver

Hi Tiffany,

I plan to review this patch series on Friday, but one obvious question is
what the reason for these failures is:

If it is due to a bug in v4l2-compliance, then let me know and I'll fix it. If not,
then it should be fixed in the driver.

Frankly, it was the presence of these failures that made me think this patch series
wasn't final. Before a v4l2 driver can be accepted in the kernel, v4l2-compliance must pass.

Regards,
