I think that longer term (which ideally shouldn't be too far in the
future) we should decouple the i.MX5/6 and i.MX7/8 drivers (this naming
is actually not quite correct, there are i.MX6 SoCs that have a CSI
bridge, not an IPUv3). The platforms are completely different at the
hardware level, they shouldn't share the same code. That would allow us
to evolve the CSI bridge driver independently from the IPUv3 driver, and
move it from staging to drivers/media/.
I'm not against merging this if it can help short term, but please also
feel free to start decoupling the drivers, even if it results in some
duplicated code.

Can we create an enum type instead, to make the code more explicit ?
