How do you envision a four-lane sensor being described?

	data-lanes = <0 1 3 4>;
	clock-lanes = <2>;

?

The binding document for video-interfaces.txt says:

- clock-lanes: an array of physical clock lane indexes. Position of an entry
determines the logical lane number, while the value of an entry indicates
physical lane, e.g. for a MIPI CSI-2 bus we could have "clock-lanes =
<0>;", which places the clock lane on hardware lane 0. This property is
valid for serial busses only (e.g. MIPI CSI-2). Note that for the MIPI
CSI-2 bus this array contains only one entry.

So I think you need to have a good reason to make the clock lane non-zero.
The purpose of the data-lanes and clock-lanes properties is to describe lane 
assignment for hardware that supports lane routing. As far as I know the 
OV5640 doesn't support lane routing and has dedicated pins for the clock and 
data lanes. The data-lanes and clock-lanes properties should probably not be 
specified at all.
