I'm afraid this is not the right solution. The rcar-csi2 driver uses the
v4l2-async framework to do endpoint matching instead of node matching.
This is needed as it needs to work with the adv748x driver which
register it self in v4l2-async using endpoints instead of nodes. The
reason for this is that from a single DT node it creates multiple
subdevices, one for each endpoint IIRC.
Without this patch the two CSI-2 receivers on R-Car M3-n registers the
two following 'paths' in v4l2 to be able to find the two subdevice CSI-2
transmitters created by the ADV748x.
rcar-csi2 fea80000.csi2: '/soc/i2c@e66d8000/video-receiver@70/port@b/endpoint'
rcar-csi2 feaa0000.csi2: '/soc/i2c@e66d8000/video-receiver@70/port@a/endpoint'
With this patch applied it registers the following which can't be found
as they are not present in the v4l2-async list of subdevices (as they
are registerd as above).
rcar-csi2 fea80000.csi2: '/soc/i2c@e66d8000/video-receiver@70'
rcar-csi2 feaa0000.csi2: '/soc/i2c@e66d8000/video-receiver@70'
rcar-csi2: probe of feaa0000.csi2 failed with error -17
This patch may unlock your use-case as it's a known problem that
endpoint and node matching do not mix. But it will break the already
upstream use-case and for that reason, I'm really sorry about this.

The real solution to this problem IMHO is to make all of v4l2-async
operate using endpoint matching or possibly some kind of fallback to
node matching if no endpoint can be found. Never the less some work is
required in the v4l2-async core to sort out node and endpoint matching
coexistence.
