Sorry for the late feedback Vinod and team.

Overall the code looks very good to me and aligned with the MIPI specs, 
there are only a couple of points that were added (or some code not 
removed) during the code cleanups, e.g.
- device12..14 should not be used
- device_property handling (master/controller confusion?)
- error cases on transfers
- spec race condition on interrupt clear (not bad but to be discussed 
further)
- some comments and code nit-picks

This is starting to get into second-order reviews really, which shows 
this is becoming quite mature. And for the record this work isn't just 
scratching the surface, it helped identify a couple of documentation 
issues in the MIPI specs which will lead to clarifications in future 
revisions.

Looking forward to a v5 ;-)

Thanks,
-Pierre
