This should be in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt.

Should flash devices be associated with sensors somehow rather than ISPs?
That's how they commonly are arranged, however that doesn't limit placing
them in silly places.

I'm not necessarily saying the flashes-property should be present in
sensor's DT nodes, but it'd be good to be able to make the association if
it's there.

There will be other kind of devices that have somewhat similar relationship.
They just haven't been defined yet. Lens controllers or EEPROM for instance.
The two are an integral part of a module, something which is not modelled in
DT in any way, but perhaps should be.
