Yes, the description is incorrect in this patch, it should read:

+- clock-frequency : the sensor's master clock frequency in Hz;

and be a required property. As in this patch:
https://github.com/snawrocki/linux/commit/e8a5f890dec0d7414b656bb1d1ac97d5e7abe563

It could vary (as this is a PLL input frequency), so probably a range would
be a better alternative. Given that host device won't always be able to set 
this exact value...

I agree it might be better, but waiting unknown number of kernel releases
for the platforms to get converted to common clock API is not a good 
alternative either. I guess we could have some transitional solutions
while other subsystems are getting adapted. 

Yet we need to specify the clock frequency range per sensor, so

1. either we specify it at a sensor node and host device driver references
   it, or
2. it could be added to a sensor specific child node of a host device
   mode, and then only the host would reference it, and sensor would
   reference a clock in its DT node; I guess it's not a problem that
   in most cases the camera host device is a clock provider.
