Thanks for your feedback. I am configuring the links like this now:

media-ctl -l "'adv7180 0-0020':0 -> 'ipu1_csi1_mux':4[1]"
media-ctl -l "'ipu1_csi1_mux':5 -> 'ipu1_csi1':0[1]"
media-ctl -l "'ipu1_csi1':1 -> 'ipu1_vdic':0[1]"
media-ctl -l "'ipu1_vdic':2 -> 'ipu1_ic_prp':0[1]"
media-ctl -l "'ipu1_ic_prp':2 -> 'ipu1_ic_prpvf':0[1]"
media-ctl -l "'ipu1_ic_prpvf':1 -> 'ipu1_ic_prpvf capture':0[1]"
media-ctl -V "'adv7180 0-0020':0 [fmt:UYVY2X8/640x480 field:seq-tb]"
media-ctl -V "'ipu1_csi1_mux':5 [fmt:UYVY2X8/640x480]"
media-ctl -V "'ipu1_csi1':1 [fmt:AYUV32/640x480]"
media-ctl -V "'ipu1_vdic':2 [fmt:AYUV32/640x480 field:none]"
media-ctl -V "'ipu1_ic_prp':2 [fmt:AYUV32/640x480 field:none]"
media-ctl -V "'ipu1_ic_prpvf':1 [fmt:AYUV32/640x480 field:none]"
v4l2-ctl -d2 --set-fmt-video=field=none

gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video2 ! kmssink:

And the Gstreamer pipeline works now.

Also, to fix the timeout issue I reported earlier, I had to increase
IMX_MEDIA_EOF_TIMEOUT:

--- a/drivers/staging/media/imx/imx-media.h
+++ b/drivers/staging/media/imx/imx-media.h
@@ -65,7 +65,7 @@ enum {
 };

 /* How long to wait for EOF interrupts in the buffer-capture subdevs */
-#define IMX_MEDIA_EOF_TIMEOUT       1000
+#define IMX_MEDIA_EOF_TIMEOUT       2000

 struct imx_media_pixfmt {
  u32     fourcc;
-- 
2.17.1

Will submit this change as a formal patch.

Thanks,

Fabio Estevam
