Just the CSI-2 receiver support should be fine. You can then extend it later
on to cover more functionality. A media device is still needed: media
entities may not exist without the media device. The media graph may well be
amended later on. (But changing what's already there should be avoided as it
changes the user space interface.)

Pick a name, typically hardware block names or such work the best in such
cases. If yours is a platform driver it'll go under
drivers/media/platform (PCI goes under pci and so on).
