Hi,

One more point for your devicetree conversions,

I don't know how the others see this, but IMO it would be cleaner to
first add a duplicate of the members of pdata in struct mt9p031 and then
initialize them either from pdata or from devicetree data. The
(artificial) creation of platform_data for the devicetree case adds a
new level of indirection. This may not be a problem here, but there are
cases where there is no 1:1 transcription between pdata and devicetree
possible.
