I wonder why you have removed the clock-frequency property?

In some situations the camera driver must be able to tell the clock source
which frequency it wants to see.

For example we connect the camera to an OMAP3-ISP (image signal processor) and
there it is assumed that camera modules know the frequency and set the clock, e.g.:

http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v4.4/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/i2c/nokia,smia.txt#L52
http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v3.14/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/i2c/mt9p031.txt

If your clock is constant and defined elsewhere we should make this
property optional instead of required. But it should not be missing.

Here is a hack to get it into your code:

http://git.goldelico.com/?p=gta04-kernel.git;a=blobdiff;f=drivers/media/i2c/ov9650.c;h=b7ab46c775b9e40087e427ae0777e9f7c283694a;hp=1846bcbb19ae71ce686dade320aa06ce2e429ca4;hb=ca85196f6fd9a77e5a0f796aeaf7aa2cde60ce91;hpb=8a71f21b75543a6d99102be1ae4677b28c478ac9

Here I wonder why you did split that up into two gpios. Each "*-gpios" can have
multiple entries and if one is not used, a 0 can be specified to make it being ignored.

But it is up to DT maintainers what they prefer: separate single gpios or a single gpio array.


What I am missing to support the GTA04 camera is the control of the optional "vana-supply".
So the driver does not power up the camera module when needed and therefore probing fails.

  - vana-supply: a regulator to power up the camera module.

Driver code is not complex to add:
