The initialization sequence for MIPI CSI [0]. As per [0] we need to
initialize the CSI2 dphy first then setup the AXI (part of CRU driver)
and then later MIPI CSI2 link (part of csi driver) and lastly turn on
clock and link (in the cru driver).
So as per the current implementation we have the below:
1] CRU IP subdev is calling pre_stream for the CSI2 subdev in its
pre_stream on callback - This is where the CSI2 DPHY is initialized
2] Later in the flow we initialize the AXI part - ie part of
rzg2l_cru_set_stream
3] We call s_stream in rzg2l_cru_set_stream - This lands into CSI2
subdev to initialize the MIPI CSI2 Link
4] In the rzg2l_cru_set_stream we setup up the vclk and enable link reception
