Re: [PATCH V2] V4L/DVB: v4l: Add driver for Marvell PXA910 CCIC

hi, Jonathan:
          yes, you are right,  this driver uses most of the low level
code from cafe-ccic.c.
          I am so sorry to miss the your email and refer info from
cafe-ccic.c  in my driver, really appreciate your work.

         the point  that I write mv_camera.c is to base the soc_camera
+ vidieobuf2, other than manage the buffer by our-self which is done
in cafe-ccic.c.
          I am OK to wait for your work on Armada 610, is this based
on soc_camera + videobuf2 ?
          let's make it a more graceful driver.

thanks
