Hi Jean-Michel,
Thank you for the patch.

I'd mention "Unicam" somewhere here.
interface. Also add a MAINTAINERS entry for it.
Oh my, I tis not the right dts bindings patch, I mixed up my trees... :-/
Sorry for this I will send a v2.1 soon...

Dave: I assumed you were the maintainer for this file, as I based it on the
bcm2835-unicam.txt file. Are you happy to be added directly as the
maintainer, or should this be specified as "Raspberry Pi Kernel
Maintenance <kernel-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>"
- in v2: multiple corrections to pass the bot checking as Rob kindly
told me.

+description: |-
+ The Unicam block on BCM283x SoCs is the receiver for either
+ CSI-2 or CCP2 data from image sensors or similar devices.
+
+ The main platform using this SoC is the Raspberry Pi family of boards.
+ On the Pi the VideoCore firmware can also control this hardware block,
+ and driving it from two different processors will cause issues.
+ To avoid this, the firmware checks the device tree configuration
+ during boot. If it finds device tree nodes called csi0 or csi1 then
+ it will stop the firmware accessing the block, and it can then
+ safely be used via the device tree binding.
As mentioned in the review of the DT integration, the nodes should
ideally be called just "csi", not "csi0" and "csi1" (maybe Rob could
confirm this ?). Dave, is there a way the firmware could be updated to
also hand over control of the Unicam instances to Linux when a "csi"
node is found, not just "csi0" or "csi1" ?
Given that the node names are significant, they should be enforced in
the YAML schema.

Let's use the Pi 4 device tree as an example, as that's what we're
upstreaming first.

This will fail to compile without a proper #include, did you get this to
