The via_camera driver should work just fine with the converted ov7670.

However, if someone can test the via_camera driver, then it's best to convert
the via_camera driver to the control framework as well and test that at the
same time. I've whipped up a patch for that and I've included it at the end.
Note that I saw that the via_camera struct was never freed in via_camera.c.
I've fixed that.

Good question: 'whatever that is' :-)

I will leave it as is for now.
