Hi Frank,

This seems to be at least the third instance of a driver for the CSI-2
receiver, the first two being
drivers/media/platform/raspberrypi/rp1-cfe/dphy.c and the second one
drivers/media/platform/renesas/rcar-csi2.c (the latter seems to support
multiple CSI-2 receivers). drivers/staging/media/imx/imx6-mipi-csi2.c
seem related too, likely for an old version of the IP.

Could we please try to avoid code duplication ?

This should go to drivers/media/platform/synopsys/
