Doesn't alloc_parse() differ from just _parse() as it reserve space
for the 'link-frequencies' array ? As this device does not support
CSI-2 and the 'link-frequencies' property is not allows in bindings,
isn't using endpoint_parse() better as it saves a call to _free() ?

Or are we deprecating that function unconditionally ? The
documentation suggests "please use v4l2_fwnode_endpoint_alloc_parse()
in new drivers" but here it doesn't seem required..

But indeed relying on auto-guessing of the bus type is deprecated since
some time now (and the API could be improved, yes). Sorry I missed
that yesterday.

As we support parallel and bt.656 only I must be honest I don't mind
it here as otherwise the code would be more complex for no real gain,
but I defer this to Sakari which has been fighting the battle against
auto-guessing since a long time now :)
