Hi Tomasz, Sakari,

Thanks for digging into the imperfections.

I cannot agree with you more, it would be fixed in next release.

Both shall be okay, let's use Hz instead, which seems to be more simple.

Sure, mipi-clock-voltage seems more clear, perfect naming :-)

So now we define the MIPI clock voltage (unit) as one function of link
frequency?

For current sensor mode (1600x1200, 390MHz link frequency), we then
shall always use the value 4 to configure the MIPI transmission speed
selection (P1:0xA1). Am I correct in thinking that?

Good idea! That's exactly what I mean.
Just submitted one draft change to handle the new property in DT.
@Sakari @Tomasz please help to review it.
