I'm using an IMX327 with this driver without any need for additional
patches :-) I'd be happy to test our patches though.

I'm not even sure if HMAX is expressed in pixels or in cycles of some
internal clock different than the pixel clocks.

It's a matter of readability of the driver code vs. matching with the
datasheet. I have a preference for decimal numbers here, but I don't
mind too much. What I would actually like is dropping the hmax value
from the imx290_mode structure and computing it dynamically based on a
hblank value set by userspace. Do you think you could help me doing so ?
