Hi Will,
Thank you for the patch.

You should add
allOf:
- $ref: /schemas/media/video-interface-devices.yaml#
here to support generic sensor properties. You will need to replace
additionalProperties: false
with
unevaluatedProperties: false
below.

When there's a single clock you can drop clock-names.

The clock-frequency property is frowned upon for sensors in DT. If the
aim is to set the frequency of the clock, it should be done through
assigned-clocks and assigned-clock-rates. If the aim is to convey the
clock frequency to the driver, it should be done by calling
clk_get_rate() in the driver.

You can drop the description, it's always the same for I2C devices.

Does that mean that the sensor supports data lane remapping ? I don't
see it implemented by the driver. If it's not supported by the hardware,
you should use
properties:
data-lanes:
minItems: 1
items:
- const: 1
- const: 2
- const: 3
- const: 4
To guarantee the order.

This seems to be a sensor-level property, not an endpoint property. As
it's not standard, it should also have a vendor prefix, i.e.
sony,sync-mode. I'm wondering, though, if we shouldn't try to
standardize it in video-interface-devices.yaml.

You can drop the description, it's already described in
video-interfaces.yaml.

Are those frequencies the only ones the hardware can support, or do they
come from the driver only supporting a fixed set of sensor PLL
configurations ? In the latter case I would drop the enumeration.
