Though even if encryption is not directly integrated with the video decoding, 
then it still makes sense to define the clock and reset in DT without using 
them by the VDE driver since the HW registers space is shared. If somebody 
would like to implement the AES driver, it could be made as a sub-device of 
VDE.

It's a bit messy to have unsed clock being enabled.

I guess BSEV clock on T20/30 only enables the AES engine. If the decryption 
engine is integrated with the video decoder, then the clock and reset should 
be requested by the driver, but BSEV should be kept disabled if it's not used.

If BSEV clock isn't powering anything related to VDE on T20/30, then let's 
make BSEV clock and reset control optional. For the clock we could check 
whether err = -ENOENT and continue, later we may switch to 
devm_clk_get_optional() of the upcoming [0]. For the reset there is 
devm_reset_control_get_optional(). 

Please try to verify by all means that we can omit BSEV on T20/30. If you are 
not sure, then let's make them optional as we can always make them required 
later.

P.S. I'll test and review all the patches during the next days.

I think you're right that these aren't strictly required for VDE to work
on Tegra20 and Tegra30. However, the BSEV clock and reset do exist on
those platforms, so I didn't see a reason why they shouldn't be handled
uniformly across all generations.

Indeed, I forgot to update that.

Are you sure that BSEV clock is really needed for T20/30? I've tried already 
to disable the clock explicitly and everything kept working, though I'll try 
again.

The device-tree changes should be reflected in the binding documentation.
