[PATCH 0/2] Remove unused variant and code clean up

[Benjamin Gaignard]

"nxp,imx8mq-vpu" variant has been tagged as deprecated since 4 years
now. This series remove it and make some context's fields useless so
remove them too.

[PATCH 1/2] media: verisilicon: Remove deprecated variant

[Benjamin Gaignard]

"nxp,imx8mq-vpu" is tagged as deprecated since:
commit f3116f2e52e6 ("media: dt-bindings: media: nxp, imx8mq-vpu: Split G1 and G2 nodes")
merged since v5.17-rc1.
There is more reference to it since that.
Remove for driver and Documentation to clean up the code.

My bot found errors running 'make dt_binding_check' on your patch:

yamllint warnings/errors:

dtschema/dtc warnings/errors:

	hint: Use 'enum' rather than 'oneOf' + 'const' entries
	from schema $id: http://devicetree.org/meta-schemas/keywords.yaml

doc reference errors (make refcheckdocs):

See https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/devicetree/patch/20260923090307.49959-2-benjamin.gaignard@collabora.com

The base for the series is generally the latest rc1. A different dependency
should be noted in *this* patch.

If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:

pip3 install dtschema --upgrade

Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note
that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking
your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.

I am not sure if it is okay to combine bindng doc into one patch.

Generally remove driver code, then remove binding doc.
