You are right, on the parallel buses the format most definitely is not
MEDIA_BUS_FMT_SBGGR10_1X10. We don't have any representation of the
32-bit bus between CSI2 host and CSI2IPU gasket because we model the two
as a single entity, but the four 16-bit parallel buses between the
CSI2IPU gasket and the IPU1/2 CSI0/1 probably should be set to a custom
format describing this accurately.
