+DW100 dewarp driver
+===================
+
+The Vivante DW100 Dewarp Processor IP core found on i.MX8MP SoC applies a
+programmable geometrical transformation on the input image to correct distortion
+introduced by lenses.
+
+The transformation function is exposed by the hardware as a grid map with 16x16
+pixel macroblocks indexed using X, Y vertex coordinates.
+::

+ Grid of Image Blocks for Dewarping Map
+
+
+Each x, y coordinate register uses 16 bits to record the coordinate address in
+an unsigned 12.4 fixed point format (UQ12.4).

+
+The dewarping map is set from applications using the
+V4L2_CID_DW100_DEWARPING_16x16_VERTEX_MAP control. The control contains
+an array of u32 values storing (x, y) destination coordinates for each
+vertex of the grid. The x coordinate is stored in the 16 LSBs and the y
+coordinate in the 16 MSBs.
+
+The number of elements in the array must match the image size:
+
+.. code-block:: C
+
+ elems = (DIV_ROUND_UP(width, 16) + 1) * (DIV_ROUND_UP(height, 16) + 1);
+
+If the control has not been set by the application, the driver uses an identity
+map.
+
+More details on the DW100 hardware operations can be found in
+*chapter 13.15 DeWarp* of IMX8MP_ reference manual.
+
+The Vivante DW100 m2m driver implements the following driver-specific control:
+
+``V4L2_CID_DW100_DEWARPING_16x16_VERTEX_MAP (__u32 array)``
+ Specifies to DW100 driver its dewarping map (aka LUT) blob as described in
+ *chapter 13.15.2.3 Dewarping Remap* of IMX8MP_ reference manual as an U32
+ dynamic array. The image is divided into many small 16x16 blocks. If the
+ width/height of the image is not divisible by 16, the size of the
+ rightmost/bottommost block is the remainder. The dewarping map only saves
+ the vertex coordinates of the block. The dewarping grid map is comprised of
+ vertex coordinates for x and y. Each x, y coordinate register uses 16 bits
+ (UQ12.4) to record the coordinate address, with the Y coordinate in the
+ upper bits and X in the lower bits. The driver modifies the dimensions of
+ this control when the sink format is changed, to reflect the new input
+ resolution.
