Nope, somehow his message has slipped from my attention.  I'd like to thank
Sakari for the thorough review.  This is my first v4l2 driver and i have most
likely made a lot of mistakes.  I'll address all his comments in v3 of the
series along with some elaboration on my part.

This is the exact opposite to what i've done for the netdev tree, where each
change should be in a separate patch.  Anyway, i'll follow the media tree rules.

I am not sure about how practical the DT will be in this case.  The sensor was
used on a custom board and a rather specific reset pin wiring.  I've tried to
remove this logic from the driver, but it is still reflected in the DT that
we've been using so far.  I've got to think about this one some more...


cheers,
Petko
