Couldn't this be a library that handles the code difference between soc-camera platform-data bits and normal subdev? Even better: couldn't this code be handled by soc_camera core and just use subdev interface for both cases? After finishing the patch, please ping me. I have here an OLPC with ov7670 where I can test if the new code doesn't break the cafe_ccic driver. You'll probably need to touch on it, as it will need to use the new mediabus API to talk with ov7670. > On another note, does anyone have an objection to making the set_bus_param > function optional?
