I've been finally able to attach the ov2640 camera in the i.MX25PDK.
I've had some problems with the clocks, but a quick dirty fix looks to
solve this issue (I'll work on cleaner solution later).

Now I have to send the camera stream to "somewhere". In the example
provided by Freescale based on L2.6.31, "somewhere" is the framebuffer,
and this is done using VIDIOC_S_FBUF and VIDIOC_OVERLAY ioctls. As these
2 ioctls are not currently implemented in soc_camera.c, I was wondefing
if it exist a different preferred method to implement this
functionality?

Regards,
Gonzalo.
