Please switch to the new model of describing and exploiting
the stand-alone CSI2 PHY devices.

Any CAMSS drivers based on the legacy description of CSIPHYs
should not be accepted into the upstream.

I mean we are just adding a new define for a SoC here - not a new init sequence.

We could move all of sc8280xp, sm8150 and sm8250 to a new driver topology but, I don't think that's a reasonable ask for a small change like this from a new contributor.

Certainly would welcome the transition given above as a defined and neat series but, I don't think there's a need for that to include this SoC in 100% existing infrastructure.
