Thanks for looking into this! As you can see in:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/include/linux/phy/phy.h#L213

phy_set_mode_ext already takes a submode argument (which is already used for
USB mode selection, for instance) and phy_set_mode is just a macro which calls
phy_set_mode_ext with submode set to 0.

In our case, that means that most current users of phy_set_mode with
PHY_MODE_MIPI_DPHY will select Tx mode by default, so there is no particular
need for adaptation. Only the rkisp1 driver uses PHY_MODE_MIPI_DPHY for Rx,
so this one was changed to use phy_set_mode_ext with PHY_MIPI_DPHY_SUBMODE_RX
instead.

As a result, there should be no missing changes. Do you agree?

Cheers,

Paul
