It already looks for any node starting "csi". If you check the
downstream DT [1], then the nodes are "csi0: csi@7e800000" and "csi1:
csi@7e801000".

There is no actual action required to hand the peripheral over to the
kernel, it just prevents the firmware from using it and causing
problems (it masks out the interrupt, and that's checked as part of
the firmware initialising the peripheral).

If using imx219 or one of the other sensors supported by the firmware,
"vcgencmd get_camera" should report that the sensor isn't detected,
and "sudo vcdbg log msg" should have a line similar to
"020174.613: camsubs: Ignoring camera 0 as unicam device not available"
