Aha, I see, ok - so we are populating an array of [1, 2, 3, 4] for each
sensor that we add.

What about creating the data_lanes once as a const static array and
mapping to that?

/*
 * Map the lane arrangement, which is fixed for the IPU3.
 */
static const int data_lanes[CIO2_MAX_LANES] = { 1, 2, 3, 4 };


...

   sensor->cio2_properties[0] = PROPERTY_ENTRY_U32_ARRAY_LEN(
                    sensor->prop_names.data_lanes,
                    data_lanes,
                    sensor->ssdb.lanes);
...

Then we don't need the loop to populate the array for each sensor
anymore, or the data_lanes in the sensor struct?
