AFAICS your main problem is not the sensor driver, but the host driver, i.e., a driver for the camera / video capture interface on your s3c2440 SoC. Specifically, the problem is that no such driver is currently available in the Linux mainline kernel and I don't remember seeing any patches for your SoC either recently. It might be the case, that such a driver is available in a vendor kernel, but then you would have to either contact your vendor for support with that kernel, or you would have to port that driver to the mainline. And then, of course, you would have to use the current (ATM 2.6.38-rcX) kernel for that work. Unfortunately, I think, finding any (unpaid) help with old (2.6.30) and / or non-mainline kernels on this mailing list will be difficult.
