Currently, there is no ov5642 support in the kernel.

It is present in devicetrees.

Yes, and none of them have the ov5642 camera functional:

arch/arm/boot/dts/nxp/imx/imx53-smd.dts
arch/arm/boot/dts/nxp/imx/imx6qdl-sabrelite.dtsi
arch/arm/boot/dts/nxp/imx/imx6qdl-sabresd.dtsi

If someone adds the support for the ov5642 camera, then a specific binding
will have to be created.

I prefer to remove it from trivial-devices to avoid confusion.

As is, it gives a false impression that ov5642 is supported and that it
is a trivial device.

The latter only do I agree with.

Care to explain how ov5642 is supported by the current mainline kernel?
