Hi Marco,
My apologies for reviewing this so late. You've received good comments
already. I have a few more.

This is interesting. The driver somehow needs to figure out the direction
of the data flow if it does not originate from DT. I guess it shouldn't as
it's not the property of an individual device, albeit in practice in all
hardware I've seen the direction of the pipeline is determinable and this
is visible in the kAPI as well. So I'm suggesting no changes due to this in
bindings, likely we'll need to address it somehow elsewhere going forward.

It'd be nice if the relation between these sections would be somehow
apparent. E.g. using different underlining, such as in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/ti,omap3isp.txt .

The node name should be a generic name of the type of the device, not the
name of the specific device as such. A similar Cadence device uses
"csi-bridge".
