 The sensor device nodes should be added to their control bus controller (e.g.
 I2C0) nodes and linked to a port node in the csis or the parallel-ports node,
 using the common video interfaces bindings, defined in video-interfaces.txt.
-The implementation of this bindings requires clock-frequency property to be
-present in the sensor device nodes.
+An optional clock-frequency property needs to be present in the sensor device
+nodes. Default value when this property is not present is 24 MHz.
