I don't mind either way.

I would have put it in the description of the #clock-cells property:
"#clock-cells":
description: |
The bridge can act as clock provider for the sensor. To enable
this support #clock-cells must be specified. Attention ...
const: 0
but if it becomes an issue, I'm OK with the comment too.

If the hardware supports different polarities, let's add them to the
device tree binding, even if the driver only supports a single option at
the moment.

Let's prepare for BT.656 support in the DT bindings, or we may regret it
later :-)
