You can also find some bit of documentation in the T7 User Manual.

I think this would be more interesting to someone who knew more about MIPI
CSI/DSI and understood what those errors meant. :)

I'm mostly concerned with bringing up the D1 SoC at the moment.

I would assume so. It could possibly be shared with the MIPI CSI interrupt (SPI
90) or keep its position at SPI 89.
