Indeed. If Mehdi and you suggest something, I'd be happy to review.
Otherwise, I'll try to come up with something reasonable. IMHO it would
make sense (as a first step) to have the clocks and the resets in this
structure, as well as a sub-structure that describes the DVP. The latter
consists of registers mainly, but maybe supported input/output formats
and other things should go in there as well. Also, downstream code has a
significant number of
    if (some condition including chip_id) A; else B;
things that we should probably get rid of with this variant structure.

As next step, a sub-structure for MIPI CSI-2 could be defined. RK356X
will have one of those, RK3588 will feature even six of them. So we
should add a const array to the variant structure.

That would absolutely make sense. What is missing, though? (I was
wondering that the driver calls media_device_(un)register but no
/dev/mediaX device pops up.)

Best regards,
Michael
