Which is different from the other devices how?
Should be with the driver:

Thanks,

Hi Conor,

Thanks for your feedback.

Compared to the other Gen4 SoC supported it only supports D-PHY. I will 
add this to next version, thanks for spotting it.

As I mentioned in the other thread about the ISPCS bindings, I 
intentionally posted the bindings separately to allow parallel 
upstreaming of driver and DT users.

Is it really a bad idea to do it this way? For other work I have done 
that involves more complex DT changes then adding a compatible, such as 
adding a new device or adding more properties to cover more features 
only available in a later version of a device. I always post the DT 
parts first as this can spur discussions about the design and only after 
they are agreed upon do I post the driver parts that make use of them.

Seems like this would consume less review resources as the bindings can 
be agreed upon first, before anyone have to spend time reviewing a 
driver that might need to be redesigned as the bindings could be 
improved.

I would always rather have the driver implemented rather than just
discuss some idealised bindings. The first place I go when I have
concerns or confusion about how a binding is intended to be used is the
driver - so it doesn't make my time reviewing something easier, that's
for sure.

Additionally, having a software implementation can make it obvious where
mistakes may be in a complex binding or notice things that were omitted.
Getting a binding merged early in that case can easily become a
hinderance..

Binding goes via driver subsystem, so how exactly do you achieve
parallelism here comparing to expected way of submitting (driver+binding)?
