I don't believe it exists on other OMAPs --- possibly on 3730 but the CSI-2
receiver is not officially supported on it. The register does not exist on
the 3430, at least not under the same name --- a reason for not existing
could be that the 3430 only has one CSI-2 receiver. The 4430 doesn't seem to
have it either, at least not under that name.

I think the solution to conditionally access it in the ISP driver would be,
albeit not pretty, a workable one: the driver is unlikely to be used on
other platforms and this is a single register accessed in a single location.
I'm of course open for better options.
