Hi Jacopo,

Thank you for the patch.

It's actually a serial flash, not an EEPROM.

That commit ID won't be valid anymore once the patches get merged,
unless they are pulled instead of cherry-picked, which is currently not
done in the Linux media subsystem. I'd drop it an only mention the
commit's subject.

OV10640_PID_TIMEOUT is used in this function only, I would have made it
local.

It would make sense to create an ov490_sensor_read() function to
encapsulate all this.

It would also be nicer to poll an OV490 register instead of sleeping
blindly. That likely requires the OV490 application note (referenced in
the datasheet), which we don't have. It may be useful to try and get
hold of that. I still feel there may be something a bit fishy, but way
less than before.

Blank line ?

On top of this series, error handling of OV490 writes would make sense.
