Hi Jacopo,

Thank you for the patch.

I would implement this differently:

		case MEDIA_BUS_FMT_UYVY8_2X8:
		case MEDIA_BUS_FMT_YUYV8_2X8:
			cr18 |= BIT_MIPI_DATA_FORMAT_YUV422_8B;
			break;

		case MEDIA_BUS_FMT_UYVY8_1X16:
		case MEDIA_BUS_FMT_YUYV8_1X16:
			cr3 |= BIT_TWO_8BIT_SENSOR;
			cr18 |= BIT_MIPI_DATA_FORMAT_YUV422_8B
			     |  BIT_MIPI_DOUBLE_CMPNT;
			break;

This would support either option here. What you will then need to change
is imx7_csi_enum_mbus_code() and imx7_csi_try_fmt(), to allow/disallow
the 2X8 and 1X16 variants based on the SoC. This is important for the
i.MX7, which has both a CSI-2 input and a parallel input. When using the
CSIS it can (and should) use double component mode, while when using the
parallel input it can work in 8-bit or 16-bit mode depending on how the
sensor is wired.
