Add bindings for the IMX258 camera sensor.  The bindings, just like the
driver, are quite limited, e.g. do not support regulator supplies.

Changes since v4:
1. Add clock-lanes,
2. Add Rob's review,
3. Add one more example and extend existing one,
4. Add common clock properties (assigned-*).

Changes since v3:
1. Document also two lane setup.

It guarantees it. The clock frequency will be as expected (except if
someone misconfigures the DTS).

This is the binding which is HW description. According to HW datasheet
other frequencies from described range are accepted and expected to
work.

It seems you confuse DT bindings with some specific driver
implementation. Bindings do not describe the driver behavior but the
HW. The ability to set the correct frequency from the driver is not
removed. It was never part of the bindings and never should. It is
part of the driver.

The bindings have Rob review which is the DT maintainer. His
ack/review is needed for the bindings to be accepted. What more do you
need? Shall I point to submitting-bindings document?

I am really tired of discussing this. You raise some concerns about
driver behavior in the wrong context - in the patch for device tree
bindings. You use the arguments about the driver while we talk about
bindings. This is clearly not correct. I am all the time repeating
myself - the bindings describe the hardware, not the driver.

Is that guaranteed?

I'm not saying no to the approach, but if we change how camera sensor DT
bindings are defined, I'd prefer an informed decision is made on the
matter.

As per datasheet, yes, different external clock frequencies can be used.
But the link frequency is still not independent of the external clock
frequency.

The properties of the sensor's PLL tree determines what can be achieved
given a certain external clock frequency. So picking a wrong external clock
frequency quite possibly means that none of the designated link frequencies
are available, rendering the sensor inoperable.

My concerns are not related to the current driver implementation nor the
driver patches in this set.

The driver then controls the HW and knows exactly what is needed. If
link frequency (which has its own DT property) requires some clock
frequency, the driver will configure the clock to that value. The same
going other direction. Driver has the knowledge about both its input
clock and link frequency, therefore it can make the best decision.

If someone configures DT or the driver to wrong frequencies (making the
link frequencies not available), the solution is not to add more
properties. It would be a band aid. The solution is to configure it
correctly.

I did not reply to this comment, so let me know. Of course, one could
add such functions. It's not a job for DT bindings, though.

Yet you refer to driver related tasks (configuring provided clock) while
discussing the bindings.

Well it doesn't if it doesn't get that information from DT.

The frequency is usually a range, and looking at these bindings, it's from
6 MHz to 27 MHz. That'd be a lot of frequencies for a driver to try.

Again you're assuming a particular driver implementation.

Typically only a few frequencies are really available on platforms, so a in
practice a driver would not be able to get any requested frequency. I
wouldn't start hard-coding every possible frequency to camera sensor
drivers.

I'm not suggesting to add it to DT binding patch. What I'm saying that with
this approach is looks like it may well be needed.

It will get it - via clk_get_rate(). You do not need DT for this.

It does not have to try all of them. Assuming link frequency is fixed,
just use any matching (or hard-coded) input clock frequency. Since the
input clock frequency most likely will be set with assigned-clock-rates,
there will be no job to do for the driver at all. Unless the driver
wants to do something more, of course.

Actually not, I am talking about bindings as far away from the driver
implementation as possible.  This is why some specific frequency *is
not* part of the bindings.

If the driver cannot get requested frequency which it apparently
requires, there is nothing more to do. It's broken HW implementation.
The input clock must be matching requirements, regardless of what
property you put in DT.  You can add "clock-frequency" property, you can
even add "really-i-require-clock-frequency" but if the real HW input
clock does not have, it won't work.

IOW, adding "clock-frequency" property does not change the reality - the
board (HW) must provide given frequency so the entire system works.

New properties can always be added to DT. However existing properties
cannot be removed. Their meaning or values cannot be changed.

+description: |-
+  IMX258 is a diagonal 5.867mm (Type 1/3.06) 13 Mega-pixel CMOS active pixel
+  type stacked image sensor with a square pixel array of size 4208 x 3120. It
+  is programmable through I2C interface.  Image data is sent through MIPI
+  CSI-2.
