Okay, will be updated to:
Add device tree binding documentation for the
MediaTek MT8196 DSP. The DSP is used by the Sound Open Firmware driver
node and includes registers, clocks, memory regions, and a mailbox for
DSP communication.

Thanks.

Okay, will be update to:
description: |
The MediaTek mt8196 SoC contains
a DSP core used for advanced pre- and
post-audio processing. This DSP
is typically used by the Sound Open Firmware
(SOF) driver and requires
registers, clocks, memory regions, and a mailbox
for communication.

Yes, but essentially it is the mux selection of the ADSP clock.
So, would using "adsp_sel" make it clearer?
