Hi Josh,

Thanks for your patches!

The first thing the above ov2640_video_probe() function will do is call 
ov2640_s_power(), which will request the clock. So, by moving requesting 
the clock from ov2640_probe() to ov2640_s_power() doesn't change how 
probing will be performed, am I right? Or are there any other patched, 
that change that, that I'm overseeing?

If I'm right, then I would propose an approach, already used in other 
drivers instead of this one: return -EPROBE_DEFER if the clock isn't 
available during probing. See ef6672ea35b5bb64ab42e18c1a1ffc717c31588a for 
an example. Or did I misunderstand anything?

Thanks
