For those unused to Xilinx documentation I'd use the full document name
("MIPI CSI-2 Receiver Subsystem v4.0") or, even better, a stable URL if
available.

The comment about the timeout is duplicated here and at the #define
line. Why not removing the define above and just putting

  u32 timeout = 1000; /* us */

here? It would make the entire timeout logic appear in a unique place.

Shouldn't you propagate s_stream to the upstream subdev here calling
v4l2_subdev_call(..., ..., s_stream, 1)?
