What is connected on i2c1 ? Just the camera sensor? or it has some
other devices there?


The bma250 accelerometer sits there, and the kernel already has a driver
for it. That driver needs to have devicetree binding support added, and
then we should be able to use the accelerometer.


Ok, so if this regulator is disable, you can't access the other
devices as well, right?


Right, the controller reports the bus as being stuck.

Do you know why? Is it the regulator providing
the pull-up voltage?


I've tried enabling the pull ups on the SoC i2c pins, so I do not think
that it is that, it seems that somehow when not powered the camera sensor is
actively keeping the lines low. Either it has multiple power planes, or
it is using normally-on fet-s between ground and its i2c lines.

FYI the reference designs use one regulator to power the pull-ups, VCC-PX
(X for X pin group), and VDDIO (IO power)on the camera sensors. AVDD, DVDD
(actual power) for the sensors are another (or more) regulators.

But that is a A23 or some such generation thing, right? This is an A10 based
tablet!

Hans
