This isn't limited to the serial side - the parallel bus side between
the CSI2 interface and CSI2IPU wrapper, and the CSI2IPU wrapper and
the CS0/1 interfaces is much the same with 10-bit bayer.

Think of the CSI2 <-> CSI2IPU bit as the 4-lane case, lane 0 ending
up on the least significant 8 bits of the 32-bit bus, lane 3 on the
top 8-bits.

Post CSI2IPU, it talks about a 16-bit bus in the diagrams, so that's
kind of the 2-lane case above...
