Re: [RFC] ISP lane shifter support

Hans, can you weigh in on this?  I'm waiting to submit a patch to
implement lane shifter support until I get a consensus what the best
approach is.  Laurent and Sakari favor having a different format on the
sensor output than on the CCDC input to indicate a shift.

If you agree that this is a sensible approach, I will go ahead and
submit my patch soon.

thanks,
Michael
