That's like many other components in MediaTek, so we can keep the mtk-disp-padding
name.... in devicetree, we will anyway use "mediatek,mt8195-mdp3-padding" as one of
the compatible string(s).

This is the only way that we have to actually distinguish between components used
for MDP3 and components used for the display subsystem, if we keep them "generic"
we won't understand what's going on in case of issues.

The driver name should contain "disp" for consistency with all of the component
drivers in mediatek-drm; if this wasn't in this folder, we could've dropped the
"disp" in the name, but that's not the case.

Consistency is #1.

Angelo
