It is a bit confusing, yes. There is no clean split in register space
for some functionality. Register space for this node on H616 SoC
represents 6 planes (each plane consist of framebuffer management, CSC
unit, scaler, etc.) but not actual registers which tell to which mixer
they are currently assigned.
