Ok, no kernel doc for internal structures then and no kernel doc for
ugly comments you pointed out below

The HW manual does not provide any indication about absolute timings.
I can empirically try and see, but that would just be a hint.

Also, the reset function is called in many places (runtime_pm
suspend/resume) s_stream(0) and in error path of ceu_capture().

In ceu_capture() we reset the interface if the previous frame was bad,
and we do that before re-enabling the capture interrupt (so interrupts
are not -disabled-, just the one we care about is not enabled yet..)

But that's not big deal, as if we fail there, we are about to abort
capture anyhow and so if we miss some spurious capture interrupt it's
ok...

Is dev_err/dev_dbg preferred over v4l2_err/v4l2_dbg? Is this because
of dynamic debug?

The original driver clearly said "The hardware is -very- picky about
this sequence" and I got scared and nerver touched this. Also, I very
much dislike the CEU_CETRC_MAGIC mask, but again the old driver said
"Acknoledge magical interrupt sources" and I was afraid to change it
(I can rename it though, to something lioke CEU_CETCR_ALL_INT because
that's what it is, a mask with all available interrupt source
enabled).

I'll try to move interrupt management here, and use flags to tell to
ceu_capture() what happened

I'll return all buffers in case of failure..

Is there a case where we enter the irq handler with no interrupt?

Isn't stride dependent on the image format only?
Where do I find informations about userspace requested padding?

dev_dbg for dynamic_debug or drop completely?

Yes, I found that when trying to implement g/s_mbus_config for ov7670
sensor. I will remove all of this and use flags returned by
"v4l2_fwnode_endpoint_parse()"

Can I do something here to prevent this?
