The CSI-2 receiver can be instantiated with up to four output channels. This is an integration-specific property, specify the number of instantiated channels through a new fsl,num-channels property. The property is optional, and defaults to 1 as only one channel is currently supported by drivers. The only known SoC to have more than one channel is the i.MX8MP. As the binding examples do not cover that SoC, don't update them.
