I mean, Jacopo is actually converting those drivers to not depend on soc_camera, and it is a way better to review those patches with the old code in place. So, at least while Jacopo is keep doing this work, I would keep at Kernel tree, as it helps to see a diff when the driver changes when getting rid of soc_camera dependencies. So, IMO, the best would be to move those to /staging, eventually depending on BROKEN. Thanks, Mauro
