I've just checked a downstream kernel for MT6795 and that one looks like
being fully compatible with this driver as well... and as far as downstream
is concerned, apparently, mt6735, 6739, 6755, 6757, 6758, 6763, 6771, 6775
all have the same register layout and the downstream driver for these is
always the very same one...

...so, I don't think that there's currently any SoC that supports more than
three columns. Besides, a fast check shows that MT8195 also has the same.
At this point, I'd say that assuming that there are 3 columns, nor less, not
more, is just fine.

To stay on the safe side, though, perhaps add a comment explaining that
this driver works on that assumption? ..but that's clear, anyway, if you
actually read the code.

 From my perspective, this commit is good to go.
