That's a back-port of my patches by a "third party";) Probably, never 
actually tested.

I'm waiting for media-controller to be pulled by Mauro (I think, they 
needed some updates by Laurent, not sure about the current state). As soon 
as that's in the mainline, I'll try to find some time to update, clean up 
and submit my beagle-board and mt9p031 patches.

Thanks
