Geode has the VIP and VOP module. These two modules are used input and output 
the video. i.e., due to the limit video process capacity, we usually use a 
external decoder to co-operate with geode to handle video and give the decoded 
the video data to geode via VIP. So v4l2 driver is used for that.

Frank
