GMSL can transport three synchronization signals: VSync, HSync and Data
Enable. The MAX9286 can select either HS or DE as a line valid signal.

Not all serializers (and transmission formats) support the DE signal.
The MAX9271, used by the RDACM20 and RDACM21 cameras, doesn't document
DE support. Nonetheless, the max9286 driver selects the DE signal as
line valid in register 0x0c (by not setting the DESEL bit). It's not
clear why this works. As HS is a more common line valid qualifier, set
the DESEL bit by default. This is needed to support the onsemi MARS
cameras.

If a camera requires usage of the DE signal in the future, this will
need to be made configurable.
