Hi Vishal,

Thank you for the patch.

The AXI IIC was removed from the subsystem in v4.1, you could drop it
from the commit message too.

YAML is the recommended form for new DT bindings. This wasn't a
requirement when the first version of this series was submitted, and I
understand it can be frustrating to chase a moving target, so I can help
with the YAML conversion once we sort out the questions below.

Nitpicking, it's CSI-2, not CSI2.

If I understand correctly, this DT binding covers the CSI-2 RX
Controller and the optional Video Format Bridge, but leaves the D-PHY
out, right ? I think this should be clarified, as the "CSI-2 receiver
subsystem" includes the D-PHY.

Is PG232 v5.0 available ? The most recent version I've found was PG232
v4.1.

The subsystem documentation also mentions a dphy_clk_200M. Is that
routed to the D-PHY only, or is it also needed for the CSI-2 RX ?

Isn't this property required only when the VFB is present ?

Unless I'm mistaken, this feature is available starting at v4 of the IP
core.

Should lite_aresetn also be supported ? We can add a lite-reset-gpios
property later, but maybe we should name this video-reset-gpios ? As the
video_aresetn signal is the main reset I don't mind keeping the name
reset-gpios either. It's up to you.

Don't you need a second source port for embedded non-image data ? If my
understanding is correct that port can be enabled or disabled through
the CSI_EMB_NON_IMG parameter, so it should be optional in DT too. We
can possibly leave it out for now, it can be added later in a
backward-compatible way.
