That's fine, but that's a software design decision, it should not affect
the DT bindings. It's possible (even if I don't necessarily recommend
doing so) to create a platform device manually in the VI driver to get
it bound to the CSI driver. In any case DT should describe the system
architecture and shouldn't be influenced by hardware design.

This is useful information. How about interrupts though ? You don't
specify any interrupt line here, how are the CSI interrutps handled ?

Could you share the output of media-ctl --print-dot to show how this
looks like ?
