Hi Frieder,

Thank you for the patch.

s/a abort/and abort/

Explaining why as a reference to future readers would be nice:

The CSI requires a connected source subdev to operate. If
fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id() fails and returns NULL, there is no
point in going on. Print an error message and abort instead.

Let's use dev_err_probe() as this is called from the probe function:

		dev_err_probe(csi->dev, -ENOTCONN,
			      "Failed to get remote endpoint\n");

Same here:

		dev_err_probe(csi->dev, ret,
			      "Failed to add remote subdev to notifier\n");
