As for the pins/signals, I wonder if per-signal polarity/edge is
enough. If this is going to be used by/replace the soc_camera
interface then we also need to know if the signal is present or not.
For instance, I have a SuperH board using my CEU driver together with
one OV7725 camera or one TW9910 video decoder. Some revisions of the
board do not route the field signal between the SuperH on-chip CEU and
the TW9910. Both the CEU and the TW9910 support this signal, it just
happen to be missing. I think we need a way to include this board
specific property somehow.
