No problem for dropping yourself, out of curiosity why so ?

Good catch. Thank you.

Both port at 0 and port at 1 can also be described, i.e. you can have FRONT and BACK sensor like on a contemporary smartphone, you just cannot start streaming from both sensors at the same time, which is a software policy and should be handled by the driver.

Definitely, the device tree should describe connected ports. This is the software's responsibility to not stream from both.
Rob's suggestion is perfect.
