we allow endpoints without a remote end connected usually. They can be
filled in later, in example, with an overlay.

defining what is required or optional might be hard. I don't see the
driver enforcing their presence and I assume they have safe default.
Maybe make them optional and specify what the defaul value is ?

If they're not required, they're optional, aren't they ? :)

Why the pclk polarity is does not apply to BT.656 ?

Are we making this required, or do we expect this to be deduced
depending on which other properties have been specified ? Sakari it
seems you would like this to become a properties that has to be
specified most of the times, right ? (I tend to agree with that FWIW),
but does it impact retro-compatibility ?
