Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH v1 5/5] arm64: tegra: Add Tegra VI CSI suppport in
 device tree

Hi Thierry

Currently all channels allocation and creating media links are all in vi 
init client ops.

So just populating CSI child from VI with moving CSI as child node to VI 
for Tegra210 should work.

Will have all the fixes in v2 along with link_validate implementations 
and merging files to have it simpler.

Thanks

Sowjanya
