So there's the unresolved MMC issue, but you can work-around that it
sounded like?

So, perhaps another way to look at this (and the rest of the series) is,
Anatolij, what needs updating for these platforms?  Is it that no DM
conversion has been done for them, or not enabling CONFIG_DM_VIDEO?  It
looks like for the nokia_rx51 there's no CONFIG_DM conversion done at
all yet, which is the bigger problem.   But what about sunxi?  Is there
some video specific conversions that need to happen, or just enabling
different options once DM is enabled?  Thanks!
