1. Each a node should respect a HW node. Defining a complex node that
contain multiple register is not better, for they belong to different
hardware. Different platforms has different hardware count, mt8195 has
five hardwares.
2. Another reason is from the IOMMU point, the vcodec HW include core
and lat hardwares, each of them connect to the independent IOMMU
hardware for mt8195, can't write all iommu ports together, or hardware
can't access dram data, so we must separate them.

We must separate each hardware node, only master need to register video
and media device, component just used for store clk/power/irq/register
information for current hardware.

According to your information, it looks that component and v4l2 async
are ok for this architecture, only component is too convoluted(iommu
driver also use component).

For we are not very familiar with v4l2 async, out architecture is
designed for component include next forty patches. It is a very big
change for out driver. I will try to spend a lot of time to change it.

You may misunderstand, I'm not objecting your suggestion every time,
for our driver is designed for component api, need to spend a lot of
time to change it in many platforms. I will change it if v4l2 async has
many advantages then component as you said. I will try to use v4l2
async as compared.

Thanks for your suggestion.
