Sorry, now I'm totally lost. Are you saying, that this fix is needed for
3.5??? Huh, nice...
commit e038ed50a4a767add205094c035b6943e7b30140

ARM i.MX27: implement clocks using common clock framework
appeared in 3.5-rc4 and broke stuff... Cool. I don't think it was
mentioned in this patch, that it is for 3.5, was it? So, I naturally
assumed it was for 3.6. Nice.
So, if I am right, and it'd that patch that broke mx2-camera, my _firm_
conviction is, that now days before 3.5 is released, the only right way to
fix it is to fix _that_ regression and that regression only. I.e., we need
a patch _only_ to fix clk-imx27.c. For which I anyway cannot help you.
Thanks
Guennadi
