[v2,0/4] media: introduce microchip csi2dc driver

Message

Hi,

This series adds support for the Microchip csi2dc csi-2 demux controller.

I was not fully sure where is the best place for such a helper chip, thus
I added the driver in a separate 'misc' menu under the media menu.

There are references in the binding driver to the Synopsys IDI interface,
which is not yet in kernel mainline, as per the patch series at [1].

As this driver is still new, it still can get plenty of improvement, so,
waiting for feedback.

Thanks everyone for reviewing !

Changes in v2:
- fixed warnings for binding yaml check

It goes under platform as the other platform drivers. There are some
similar chips already supported I believe.

Feel free to CC me in the future.
