I'm still not that familiar with DT overlays (and I guess others aren't
either) so I think that including an example of a base tree and overlay
DTS where this is an issue, could make things more clear in the commit.

IIUC, it should be something like this?

-- base tree --

&i2c1 {
camera: camera@10 {
reg = <0x10>;
port {
cam_ep: endpoint {
...
};
};
};
};

&media_bridge {
...
ports {
port@0 {
reg = <0>;
ep: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&cam_ep>;
};
};
};
};

-- overlay --

/plugin/;
/ {
...
fragment@0 {
target = <&camera>;
__overlay__ {
compatible = "foo,bar";
...
port {
cam_ep: endpoint {
...
};
};
};
}
}

I also couldn't think a better way to do this, since IIUC the node's name is
the only thing that doesn't change, and is available at the time the bridge
driver calls v4l2_async_notifier_register() when parsing the base tree.
