+Endpoint node properties for CSI1
+---------------------------------
Should you list the CSI0 properties as well ? As the driver in patch 2/2
doesn't support the CSI-2 interface I assume you have left out CSI0 for
now, but it should still be listed in the bindings. I'm fine with fixing
this as a follow-up patch to avoid missing the v4.20 merge window, but if
you end up resubmitting the series, could you please address the problem
?
That driver is not available, and the documentation isn't either, so
there's no easy way to tell which properties are going to be needed
before doing the actual work of reverse engineering it and writing a
driver for it. Unfortunately...
While DT bindings should be independent from driver implementations, I agree 
it's difficult to develop good bindings without hardware documentation and 
without at least one working driver implementation.

How about just explicitly stating that these bindings don't support CSI0 yet ?
OK.

Thanks,
Yong
