Any comment about this patch series ? Shuah, do you plan to give it a
look ? If you don't have much time for vimc these days that's OK, I can
work with Kieran to get the patches reviewed.

On a related note, I would like to modify the MC pipeline of the vimc
driver to make it look more like a real ISP. This would help with unit
testing and compliance testing in libcamera. I briefly discussed this
with Hans on IRC who had no objection. If anyone has any issue or
concern with this plan, I would appreciate if you could let me know.
