The driver does support capturing from multiple cameras at the same time, 
provided one of them is connected to the CSI2A receiver. You can then capture 
raw frames from the CSI2A receiver output while processing frames from the 
other camera (connected to CSI1/CCP2, CSI2C or parallel interface) using the 
whole ISP pipeline.

Please note that the consumer OMAP3 variants are documented by TI as not 
including the CSI receivers. However, several developers have reported that 
the receivers are present and usable at least in some of the chips.
