      The regulator that supplies power to the VCC_EXT_IN pins.

You can drop "in microseconds", that's implied by the suffix.

I'd like to propose what I think is a clearer version:

    description: |
      Low power to high speed delay time.

      If the value is larger than 0, the camera forces a reset of all
      D-PHY lanes for the duration specified by this property. All lanes
      will transition to the low-power state and back to the high-speed
      state after the delay. Otherwise the lanes will transition to and
      remain in the high-speed state immediately after power on.

      This is meant to help CSI-2 receivers synchronizing their D-PHY
      RX.

Question about the property.
Why not make it have a minimum value of 1 and drop the special-case
behaviour for zero?

Cheers,
Conor.

Personally I prefer to stay with zero case.
This reflect better the real camera register behaviour.

(also is optional)

Speaking of which, could you document the maximum value in the bindings
?

150ms is the max value I'll document this in v4.

The property is optional, so it can indeed be omitted if no delay is
desired. I have no strong preference on whether or not to allow 0 as a
valid value.

FWIW, I prefer the semantics of the property if it doesn't have the
limbo state of being present but doing nothing.

Cheers,
Conor.

BTW, I seem to get bounces from shawnx.tu@intel.com, who is listed in
MAINTAINERS for several drivers. Do you know if they have a non-intel
address to replace those entries with, or should they be dropped?

My bot found errors running 'make DT_CHECKER_FLAGS=-m dt_binding_check'
on your patch (DT_CHECKER_FLAGS is new in v5.13):

yamllint warnings/errors:

dtschema/dtc warnings/errors:
./Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/i2c/alliedvision,alvium-csi2.yaml: $id: relative path/filename doesn't match actual path or filename
	expected: http://devicetree.org/schemas/media/i2c/alliedvision,alvium-csi2.yaml#

doc reference errors (make refcheckdocs):

See https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/devicetree-bindings/patch/20230606155416.260941-3-tomm.merciai@gmail.com

The base for the series is generally the latest rc1. A different dependency
should be noted in *this* patch.

If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:

pip3 install dtschema --upgrade

Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note
that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking
your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.
