Hi Philipp, Ian over at linux-media helped me to understand these registers a
little better, although there are still mysteries given the poor documentation.
You should have been copied on that linux-media thread.

So this NEWAVMODE is somehow breaking from the BT.656 standard, which
necessitated the change to CSI_CCIR_CODE_2. So NEWAVMODE if enabled in
the ADV7180 will break other capture backends that are expecting standard
BT.656 SAV/EAV codes. So NEWAVMODE should not be used and I will remove
this patch in the next version.
