MediaTek Vcodec shared helper code

Shared utility and helper code used by MediaTek's video codec drivers (the encoder and decoder blocks found in MediaTek SoCs used in Chromebooks, Android tablets, and embedded devices). It is library glue rather than a driver for any specific hardware block on its own.

recommendation

This is not actually a driver directory; it is a folder of common helper code shared between MediaTek's video encode and decode drivers elsewhere in the same subsystem. There is nothing to keep or remove independently — its fate is tied to the MediaTek vcodec drivers it supports.

codex reasoning notes (technical)

Not a driver directory: shared Mediatek Vcodec common helper/library code under a driver subsystem, not a standalone kernel-bound hardware driver.
