Hi Gerald,

Thanks for your patch.

This default value definition is unused right now, but...

...you can make sure that clk_phase has a valid value in any case (apply
default value defined above if DT does not define it or defines
something invalid) and write the register unconditionally.

if (phase > 7)

Seems a bit harsh. What would you think about printing a warning and
applying the default value?

Maybe

	ret = device_property_read_u32(dev, "rockchip,clk-lane-phase",
				       &priv->clk_phase);
	if (ret < 0 || priv->clk_phase > 7) {
		dev_info(dev,
			 "found %s value for rockchip,clk-lane-phase,"
			 "assuming default value",
			 ret < 0 ? "no" : "invalid");
		priv->clk_phase = CSIDPHY_CLK_PHASE_DEFAULT;
	}

would do the trick too?

Best regards,
Michael
