Hi Frank,

Thank you for the patch.

Mixed feelings about having different bindings files for what is
essentially the same IP, but I won't object.

This surprises me. The reference manual does list 8 clocks and
interrupts, but only 6 channels in the ISI section (for instance in
15.6.1.1.4). Which one is wrong ?

Figure 15-59 in the reference manual list MIPI CSI-2 RX 0 and RX 1 as
connected to inputs 0 and 1 respectively.

The memory map in the reference manual lists the "Pixel DMA" region as
ending at 0x5817ffff. Shouldn't the length of the region be 0x80000 ?

Here you have 5 channels, while the reference manual lists 8 interrupts
and 6 channels in the ISI documentation.

Table 15-6 in the reference manual lists the parallel port as input 4.

Same comment here about the registers range.

Should nxp,imx8-isi.yaml be renamed to fsl,imx8-isi.yaml ?
