Hi Michael,

Thank you for the patch,

Could the patch title be a bit better described? Perhaps:

media: i2c: adv748x: Correct EAV F-bit handling

Could you detail where this reference is to help searching for it
please? (it looks like Table 2, page 5)

It would help to indent those lines to make the whole text a bit more
readable...

I'm a bit worried by this patch, as it implies that we would have had
our fields inverted in our testing, or if they are not - then applying
this patch will then invert them! So either way we need to check this
carefully.

I can see the EAV:F values match the description above in the document...

Niklas, how does RCar-CSI determine the top/bottom sequence?

Do we have field inversion currently? (or one which is perhaps swapped
somewhere along the pipeline in rcar-vin?)

I think it would be nice to store the bit as macro defines in
drivers/media/i2c/adv748x/adv748x.h

I appreciate that the rest of this function does not (yet) do that
however, (it has been derived from a table of ADI required writes) - but
I think now that it is split from a table to a function it could be nice
to clean up the 'magic numbers' along the way.

Of course if you have time to convert the rest of the function as well
(in a separate patch) that might be a nice cleanup, but not required.
