That was at the time where the .link_setup() callback was called for
TXs and non-TXs. What you proposed was to call:

#define adv748x_sd_to_csi2(sd) container_of(sd, struct adv748x_csi2, sd)

on variables that we don't have any guarantee that are of type 'struct
adv748x_csi2'. I still think it is dangerous and should be avoided and
I worked it around in v1 as:

+	if ((sd != &state->txa.sd && sd != &state->txb.sd) ||

It's not unknown, .link_setup() is only registered for TXs. If it gets
called, we know we're dealing with a TX.

That was what I did in v1, didn't I ?

The current implementation looks better imho, but if the both of you
prefer something similar to v1 I will consider that.
