If that's something we can add later (I think it is), I would rather do this in
a sub-sequent series to keep the current one lightweight and merged ASAP.

It would also require some investigation to find out if the MIPI CSI-2 channel
number i goes directly to the CSI controller channel number i or if some
remapping can take place.

What do you think?

Okay I may have misunderstood how manual/automatic propagation is supposed to
work then. The fact that this is done this way in the CSI driver maybe gave me
a bad example to follow. I'll revisit this.

I'm not following any of this. Could you break it down some more?
In particular I don't see the relationship between initializing the regmap
API (which does take IORESOURCE_MEM in) and reset / clocks.

Just initializing the regmap API for I/O mem doesn't mean that the registers
are ready for use, does it? We're not requesting any I/O operation from it
at this point.

That's not the point, the point is rather that if this is wrong, we should fix
it in the CSI driver as well.
