I'm afraid this approach won't work because MIPI DSI Master and MIPI CSI
Slave devices share a control bit in the register and it seems impossible
to ensure proper locking with current regmap/syscon API.

I have submitted patches to fix this issue [1] and they should be already
available in linux-next and can be found on linux-samsung-soc ML:

[PATCH 1/2] phy: exynos-video-mipi: Fix regression by adding support for PMU regmap
[PATCH 2/2] ARM: dts: Add syscon phandle to the video-phy node for Exynos4

The other issue with your approach is that we are moving the PMU details
to the MIPI DSIM driver and similar changes would need to be done in
the MIPI CSIS driver.

Instead I just added syscon support to the PHY layer, it's not perfect
but fixes the issue for both DSI and CSI and  doesn't strip the PHY layer
which could potentially be useful.
