I agree that removing the global group variable would be for the better, 
and I was hoping to be able to use the device allocator API for this 
once it's ready. However for now on all supported hardware (I know of) 
there would only be one group for the whole system.

- On H3 and M3-W CSI20 is connected to all VINs.
- On V3M there is only one CSI40 and it is connected to all VINs.

Is this satisfactory for you or do you believe it would be better to 
complete the device allocator first. Or implement parts of the ideas 
from that API locally to this driver? If I understand things correctly 
there are still obstacles blocking that API which are not trivial. And 
even if they are cleared it have no DT support AFIK so functionality to 
iterate over all nodes in a graph would be needed which in itself is no 
trivial task.

Wops, no they can be dropped.

Sure, the values are read from DT so if the renesas,id property have the 
same value for more then one node. This is a incorrect DT of course but 
better to handle and warn for such a case I think?

Will fix.

Sure.

I will try and use the compatible string here.

Wops, thanks for pointing this out.

Good point.

I will see what makes most sens, a linked list or making it a array of 
pointers.
