That would be the ideal situation. We need to be careful about not
breaking backward compatibility, but apart from that,
MEDIA_BUS_FMT_UYVY8_1X16 is the way to go.

I started writing a documentation patch, and found it it's already
documented :-) Documentation/userspace-api/media/v4l/subdev-formats.rst
states:

    The media bus pixel codes document parallel formats. Should the
    pixel data be transported over a serial bus, the media bus pixel
    code that describes a parallel format that transfers a sample on a
    single clock cycle is used. For instance, both
    MEDIA_BUS_FMT_BGR888_1X24 and MEDIA_BUS_FMT_BGR888_3X8 are used on
    parallel busses for transferring an 8 bits per sample BGR data,
    whereas on serial busses the data in this format is only referred to
    using MEDIA_BUS_FMT_BGR888_1X24. This is because there is
    effectively only a single way to transport that format on the serial
    busses.

What PIXEL_MODE_DUAL and MIPI_DOUBLE_CMPNT do exactly is not totally
clear, we'll have to iron it out to ensure drivers can pick the right
settings automatically.
