It's a bit of a grey area. While enabling/disabling CSI lanes could be 
considered as falling into the scope of pinctrl (but even there I have some 
doubts, as this is one level beyond pin muxing in my opinion), pushing clock 
enabling/disabling to pinctrl would require a really big shoehorn :-) The 
register also controls the CSI2 PHY mode of operation (CCP2, CSI1 or CSI2), 
which doesn't really look like pinctrl territory to me.

Let's also keep in mind that the configuration currently hardcoded by the 
driver is a shortcut. We want to be able to control each field in the register 
dynamically and independently. We can't apply partial pinctrl configurations 
today, so we would need to declare one configuration for every field 
combination, which really doesn't scale.

The TRM ISS section states that

"(vii) A dedicated internal clock gate control is present for each PHY. Enable 
or disable the internal CTRLCLK from the CAMERARX_CSI22_CTRLCLKE[21] 
CAMERARX_CSI22_CTRLCLKE bit or the [18] CAMERARX_CSI21_CTRLCLKE bit."

Those two of the bits could probably be exposed through CCF, and [1] seems to 
go in the right direction for that. We will still need a solution for the 
other bits though, as we will need to handle all accesses to the register from 
a single driver in order to implement proper locking (although we could 
consider that the caller should handle access serialization, but that's a bit 
messy I believe).

I'm working on DT support for the OMAP4 ISS driver, so that's not an option 
I'm afraid.
