Yes, it does fix a real bug. Without this patch the ov2640 cannot be
probed, as it fails to read the product/vendor ID via I2C. I measure
with the scope and do not get mclk at all without this patch.

Again, camera probe does work fine on kernel 3.4.

Does the mx27 feed the mclk to your camera?  Which frequency do you
get if you measure it with a scope.

This 66.5MHz is wrong.

Well, you are looking to all git trees after the conversion to the
common clock framework.

Please look at 3.4 kernel instead and you will see that per4 is indeed
used for csi.
"DEFINE_CLOCK1(csi_clk,     0, NULL,   0, parent, &csi_clk1, &per4_clk);"

In fact, the mx27 reference manual is the correct source for such
information. Please check "Table 39-9. CSI Control Register 1 Field
Descriptions (continued)":

"Sensor Master Clock (MCLK) Divider. This field contains the divisor MCLK.
The MCLK is derived from the PERCLK4."

Can you let me know if this patch breaks things for you? Or what
exactly you think is wrong with it?

It seems that you are camera works by pure luck without this patch.
Maybe you are turning per4 in the bootloader or you get the clock to
your camera from somewhere else.

Fabio Estevam
