Not too late at all.
We're very pleased to get input from other users and system configurations!

I suspect that it is likely your existing framework is matching at the
device level instead of the endpoint level, as it sounds like a topic we
hit on both this GMSL implementation and the ADV748x, but I'll have to
take a deeper look to be sure.
Matching should be done on endpoints, not devices as there could now be
multiple 'endpoints' connected to a single device.
The RCar-VIN platform now solely uses endpoint matching, and I believe
we may have to work through other platforms to update to the same approach.
A 'temporary' solution may be in the form of this patch:
https://git.linuxtv.org/sailus/media_tree.git/commit/?h=fwnode-const&id=35c32d99b2c3f5086b911ec817926de9b7bc3b41
Which I had mistakenly thought was already accepted for upstream but
appears to have stalled.
I'll follow this up separately to see what we need to do here.

Indeed, it becomes a requirement to match on endpoints to be able to
correctly identify which subdevice is matched.
Please try:
https://git.linuxtv.org/sailus/media_tree.git/commit/?h=fwnode-const&id=35c32d99b2c3f5086b911ec817926de9b7bc3b41
and let me know if it resolves your matching issues.
That's from 2017, so the patch itself may have bitrotted since and need
a refresh. Let me know if you have any difficulties applying and I'll
see about getting a refreshed patch posted to the mailing lists to
discuss this particular topic again.

It seems Jacopo also had to disable the overlap window for the RDACM21:
https://jmondi.org/cgit/linux/commit/?h=gmsl/jmondi/platform/rdacm21&id=576bbaee7cc707869a0c5e90befd99c9e2cf754e
Please let us know if you hear back from Maxim.

I agree, We are currently trying to tackle similar issues between our
two current cameras "RDACM20" and "RDACM21" which have different
requirements for the two configurations so we are trying to look at ways
to handle that too.
In particular we also need to handle:
- Pixelrate control to determine CSI2 bus speed.
- Link amplitude and threshold levels
- Format differences
Are you still using the 'Sensing/Vision' (AR0231?) camera module that
Linaro were working with? (I currently have one, so let me know if you'd
like me to do any testing)
If they are of any use/reference to you, here are our current WIP
drivers for the RDACM20 [0] and RDACM21 [1] which Jacopo has been
developing which show how we currently separate the max9271 and sensor
packaging:
