In the vast majority of cases the bus type is known to the driver(s)
since a receiver or transmitter can only support a single one. There
are cases however where different options are possible.

The existing V4L2 OF support tries to figure out the bus type and
parse the bus parameters based on that. This does not scale too well
as there are multiple serial busses that share common properties.

Some hardware also supports multiple types of busses on the same
interfaces.

Document the CSI1/CCP2 property strobe. It signifies the clock or
strobe mode.

Actually, thinking about this again --- we only need to explictly specify
busses if we're dealing with either CCP2 or CSI-1. The vast majority of the
actual busses are and continue to be CSI-2 or either parallel or Bt.656. As
they can be implicitly detected, we would have an option to just drop values
0 and 1 from above, i.e. only leave CSI-1 and CCP2. For now, specifying
CSI-2 or parallel / Bt.656 adds no value as the old DT binaries without
bus-type will need to be supported anyway.

How about the "ti,strobe-clock-inv" I proposed? No-one seems to know what
this really truly means... or just drop it if it's not really needed.


Not really :), see https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg99802.html and https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg99800.html

"clock/strobe", and "strobe-inv" are two distinct properties, see CSI1B_CTRL description in OMAP TRM. BTW there is another property that is needed for both n900 cameras to operate correctly (VP_CLK_POL, bit 12 from the same reg), but that can be added later on when we have the other bits in place.
