DS says that all power domaint are on after reset. My bootloader did
not switch then off. So when linux start everything is on.
CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME was disabled, so nothing switch them off in linux
too.

Attached.

I often get "VIDIOC_QUERYCAP: failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device"
or "system error: Inappropriate ioctl for device"
Is it because of not implemented set/get framerate func? How this
should work? I mean framerate heavy depend of sensor's settings. So
set/get framerate call to fimc should get/set framerate from sensor.
What is mechanism of such things?
And same question about synchronizing format of sensor and FIMC pads.
I make ov2640 work, but if did not call media-ctl for sensor, format
of FIMC sink pad and format of sensor source pad different. I think I
missed something, but reading other sources did not help.

Thanks.
Best regards.
