Thanks for the update!

I'm still a bit puzzled here.

CPG_MOD 716 is the CSI40 module clock, which runs at 25 MHz, and is
presumably output to the CSI0_CLKP/N pair? Or is its rate controlled
by the CSI driver?
On the MIPI board[*], that signal becomes MIPI1_CP/N.
However, the MIPI board also has a "Clock Source Selection" header,
which allows you to choose one of:
  1. The fixed 24 MHz crystal, which is apparently used for the imx219
     camera, as described by imx219_clk above, and matches the wanted
     clock rate specified below?
  2. CSI1_CLK,
  3. CSI2_CLK.
The last two become CLK0/1 on the CAT874 board, which are driven by
TPU0TO0/1.

Which setting do you use for the ov5645 camera?

> +       clock-frequency = <24000000>;

After your patch for the ov5645 driver, this should be replaced by
assigned-clock-rates?

The rest looks good to me, but I'm not a multi-media/camera expert.
