Please elaborate, what statement above is not correct?

And here it's just a confirmation that my statement above is correct,
so please be consistent, and especially in any kind of accusations like
you've just given above.

Any of ports in CAMSS device tree are properties of CSIPHY IPs, and ports
are not the properties of CSID or whatever is left in CAMSS after the
extraction.

If CSIPHYs are extracted from CAMSS into its own device tree node, so all
CSIPHY only properties shall be removed from CAMSS, like CSIPHY reg,
interrupts, clocks and ports as well.
