Up to you. I have an upcoming patch that changes the code again. :-) So I'll keep it in my set. Btw. I checked Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/ti-cal.txt and it seems a bit incomplete. There is no endpoint configuration on CAL side (which is understandable now), but there's also the "slave-mode" property which looks just inapplicable for this type or hardware. Also "reg = <0>" can be omitted on ar0330 side. Is this btw. an Aptina image sensor or some lesser known TI chip with somewhat similar properties? :-) The binding file should describe relevant properties for the device as well as the valid values for them. (Excluding graph etc. documentation which already exists elsewhere.) Would you like to address these? :-) Thanks. -- Kind regards, Sakari Ailus sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com
