Hi Jack,

Thank you for the patch.

This would have been easier to review if the patch had been split in
two, with conversion to YAML first, and then addition of new properties.
Generally speaking, one patch should contain a single logical change.

The existing bindings state

- compatible: must be set to "cdns,csi2rx" and an SoC-specific compatible

This should thus be

compatible:
items:
- enum:
- vendor1,device1
- ...
- const: cdns,csi2rx

The trouble is that the existing bindings are not used in mainline and
don't specify any SoC-specific compatible string, so I don't know what
to indicate for vendor1,device1. One option would be to add the StarFive
compatible string already:

compatible:
items:
- enum:
- starfive,jh7110-csi2rx
- const: cdns,csi2rx

The example below should be updated accordingly.

This changes the clock names and breaks compatibility with the driver.
The existing names must be preserved.

Let's move the addition of the resets and reset-names properties to a
patch separate from the YAML conversion to make it easier to review them
independently.

You can simplify this to

bus-type:
const: 4

Does the IP core support clock and data lanes remapping ?

This is also a change compared to the existing bindings, and it will
break backward compatibility. You should have four output ports.

The csi2rx label is never referenced, you can drop it.
