V4L2_FWNODE_BUS_TYPE_PARALLEL is not meant to be used for DPI, but
rather is used to represtent CPI. So another enum (something along the
lines of V4L2_FWNODE_BUS_TYPE_DPI) needs to be defined, and then this
series needs to use this new enum.

I'd like to see the following:
 - Introduction of V4L2_FWNODE_BUS_TYPE_DPI
 - Reworking this series to use V4L2_FWNODE_BUS_TYPE_DPI
 - Reworking "mt8183: jacuzzi" to use V4L2_FWNODE_BUS_TYPE_DPI

Does that make sense?
