[PATCH v2 1/1] media: i2c: ov02c10: Keep power on and use reset for power management

[Saikiran <bjsaikiran@gmail.com>]

The OV02C10 sensor was experiencing brownout conditions during rapid
power cycles (e.g., browser WebRTC permission checks) on Qualcomm
platforms, causing the sensor to lock up and require a system reboot.

Root cause:
The Qualcomm RPMh regulator driver does not support active discharge,
requiring regulators to passively discharge via leakage current. This
takes 2+ seconds on X1E80100 platforms. Without complete voltage
discharge, the sensor's internal microcontroller does not fully reset,
leading to I2C timeouts and a locked state.

Solution:
Instead of power cycling the regulators, keep them continuously enabled
and use reset signals to control the sensor state:

- power_off(): Assert hardware reset GPIO (keep regulators/clock ON)
- power_on(): Release hardware reset + trigger software reset via
  register 0x0103 (standard OmniVision software reset)

This approach:
- Eliminates the 2+ second discharge delay
- Enables instant camera reopening (~17ms vs 2.3s)
- Properly resets the sensor state machine via reset signals
- Maintains correct power sequencing on first initialization
- Follows OmniVision sensor conventions (0x0103 software reset)

The first power-on still performs full regulator and clock
initialization. Subsequent power cycles only toggle reset signals,
avoiding the discharge delay entirely.

Tested on Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x (X1E80100) with rapid camera open/close
cycles - no brownouts or lockups observed.
