Is this your reasoning ?

width: 3840
hblank: 560
height: 2160
vblank: 2340
bpp: 12
fps: 60
lanes: 4

Total bandwidth: (3840 + 560) * (2160 + 2340) * 60 * 12 = 14.256.000.000
Bandwidth per lane = Total / 4 = 3.564.000.000
mipi clock = Bandwidth_per_lane / 2 = 1.782.000.000

Two questions:

- Should you update the pixel clock as well ? It is currently set to
  594000000 while as per the above reasoning it should be doubled too.

- Where is the sensor's clock tree programmed in the driver ?
  It's kind of weird that the pixel_clock and link_freq in the driver
  are half of what they theoretically should be...
