Hi Guennadi, Mauro,

Sorry about that. I usually send patches for mx2-camera to you as well
but this time I missed it. The fact that your name does not appear
when executing 'get_mantainer' doesn't help me to remember either.

I think you are right. It seems I should provide a default for other
mbus formats instead of returning an error. It's good you noticed
because I haven't got any device to test this pass-through mode, so I
try my best to add new functionallity without breaking it.

>If I'm write, I'll ask Mauro to revert your patch. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Is this the way to proceed or should I send a fix on top of it? This
patch is merged in 'for_v3.5', if Mauro reverts it and I send a new
version,  would it be also merged 'for_v3.5' or should it wait for
version 3.6?

Regards.
