Well, it is already deprecated (i.e. new drivers cannot use it), but it won't be removed any time soon. There are still drivers depending on it, and some aren't easy to rewrite. I have to say that it is totally unexpected to see that this omap1 driver is still used. In fact, we've already merged a patch that removed it for the upcoming 4.8 kernel. Based on this new development I'll revert that for the omap1 driver. Out of curiosity: is supporting the Amstrad Delta something you do as a hobby or are there other reasons? A final note: once you've managed to drop the soc-camera dependency you should run the v4l2-compliance test over the video node (https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/). If that passes without failures, then this driver is in good shape and can be moved out of staging again.
