There are five vepu121 cores for jpeg encoding. And Emmanuel is doing work on
them[1]. And at the moment the driver doesn’t yet support exposing these cores
all as a single video node to userspace, so Emmanuel only exposes one single
core.

Now we have 5 jpeg enc cores, one from 0xfdb50000 and other four from
0xfdba00000. I tried to add a decoding only core 0xfb50400, but that does not
work. So the vpu should be defined as one node in devicetree for both encoder
and decoder like rk3399.

This vpu121 should be exactly the same as the one in rk3399 which supports both
encoding and decoding. But the current hantro driver has disabled h264 decoding
since there is anthoer decoder rkvdec on rk3399. This vpu121 is the only
decoder which supports h254 decoding on rk3588, so we can't just use the
vpu_variant from rk3399. Maybe we can use rk3399_vpu_variant back when rkvdec2
on rk3588 is supported by mainline kernel.

At the moment we can keep the compatible string same as the one from rk356x.
Since there are already jpeg enc cores at 0xfdba0000, we can ignore the one at
0xfdb50000. When rkvdec2 is supported, I will change "rockchip,rk3588-vpu121"
same as "rockchip,rk3399-vpu".

And I think changing "rockchip,rk3588-vdpu121" to "rockchip,rk3588-vpu121"
should match the hardware correctly.
