This probably needs to be documented, but I think the official API is 
V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE. The link frequency control is not mandatory.

We've briefly discussed this before, and I agree that pipeline power 
management needs to be redesigned, but we still haven't agreed on a proper 
architecture for that. Feel free to propose an RFC :-) In the meantime I 
wouldn't try to enforce one specific model.
