Hi Krzysztof,

Thanks for the review.

I'll explain in the next patchset.

Yes, it is Samsung CSI IP.

Why are you adding it to NXP?

Samsung CSIS IP core present in Exynos(samsung/exynos4-is/mipi-csis.c) series is
completely different from the one in the Tesla FSD SoC. However, it is compatible
with the samsung CSIS IP used in the NXP SoC. For better code reusability, I am
integrating it with the NXP imx-mipi-csis driver.

I'll explain the same in commit description as well.

I used samsung,syscon-csis because the system controller on Tesla FSD
follows Samsung's sysreg design.
