Currently, the V4L2 subdevice is also created when the device is not available/connected. In this case, dmesg shows the following: [ 10.419510] imx290 7-001a: Error writing reg 0x301c: -6 [ 10.428981] imx290 7-001a: Error writing reg 0x3020: -6 [ 10.442712] imx290 7-001a: Error writing reg 0x3018: -6 [ 10.454018] imx290 7-001a: Error writing reg 0x3020: -6 which seems to come from imx290_ctrl_update() after the subdev init is finished. However, as the errors are ignored, the subdev is initialized but simply does not work. From userspace perspective, there is no visible difference between a working and not-working subdevice (except when trying it out or watching for the error message). This commit adds a simple availability check before starting with the subdev initialization to error out instead.
