The sensor (I2C and/or SPI client) devices are instantiated by their
corresponding control bus drivers. Since the I2C client's master clock
is often provided by a video bus receiver (host interface) or other
than I2C/SPI controller device, the drivers of those client devices
are not accessing hardware in their driver's probe() callback. Instead,
after enabling clock, the host driver calls back into a sub-device
when it wants to activate them. This pattern is used by some in-tree
drivers and this patch also uses it for DT case. This patch is intended
as a first step for adding device tree support to the S5P/Exynos SoC
camera drivers. The second one is adding support for asynchronous
sub-devices registration and clock control from sub-device driver
level. The bindings shall not change when asynchronous probing support
is added.

+The sensor device nodes should be added as their control bus controller
I think "as" should be "to"?
Yes, something is wrong here. Hopefully this is more correct:

The sensor device nodes should be added to their control bus controller
(e.g. I2C0) nodes and linked to a port node in the csis or parallel-ports

+(e.g. I2C0) child nodes and linked to a port node in the csis or parallel-ports
+node, using common the common video interfaces bindings, i.e. port/endpoint
                ^^^^^^^^
And this needs correction too.

+node pairs. The implementation of this binding requires clock-frequency
+property to be present in the sensor device nodes.
