If this way occures wrong, then it's only my fault, since I've taken it myself, without consulting it neither on omap nor media list, so I'm not going to blame anyone except myself. > Have you had specific reasons for this design? It looked like the most simple way for me. And while implementing it, I haven't faced any restrictions that would lead me to changing my mind and doing it another way. > Is OMAP1 so different from 2 (and 3)?

Since not all patches from the series are OMAP related, and those that are not, don't depend on others, I think you could have a look at 4/6 and see if it makes sense or not. You could also examine 6/6 and see if you would like the idea of a camera LED trigger implemented, this way or another, at the soc_camera framework level rather than specific machine or platform. Last, the sensor driver (3/6), even if soc_camera specific, could be considered, if accepted, for adopting it as a regular v4l2-subdev, if required by a different implementation of OMAP part choosen.
