Uh, I missed that. So indeed restricting the possible combinations in
the .dts file is a no-go :0

Agreed then.
Looking at the definition in video-interfaces.txt
data-lanes:
$ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32-array
minItems: 1
maxItems: 8
items:
# Assume up to 9 physical lane indices
maximum: 8
Should the R-Car CSI-2 bindings report (validated with
dt_binding_check)
data-lanes:
maxItems: 4
items:
maximum: 4
