Reading thru v6 of the camera driver, it seems like having intermediate buses would solve the problem in your case? As Arnd mentioned in that thread, something new needs to address all the deficiencies with dma-ranges and describing DMA bus topologies. This doesn't address the needs of describing bus interconnects. There's been some efforts by the QCom folks with an interconnect binding. They've mostly punted (for now at least) to not describing the whole interconnect in DT and keeping the details in a driver. On the flip side, this does mirror the established pattern used by interrupts, so maybe it's okay on it's own. I'll wait for others to comment.
