Thanks, it took me a while to review this nearly 10k of code.
But fortunately I could spent some more time at the computer
this weekend ;)

That's great, this patch set won't depend then on the proper clock
deregistration support in the common clock framework.

Yes, that was my understanding as well.

I see, I think it's the right place. I was just curious what this clock
was exactly. It an SoC requires it internally then it is correct to handle
it as you do now. And if it happens that it controls the CAM_BAY_MCLK
output clock of the camera bay, then it could be exposed as the master
clock for the device attached to that physical camera port. In that case
the SCLK_CAM bayer clock could be gated conditionally in the media device
driver, depending on the data bus interface used by a remote image data
source device. But that's mostly speculations. I'm fine with associating
this clock with the media device, especially as far as the DT binding is
concerned.
