I don't know anything about mt9v034. It might or might not be compatible 
with one of supported cameras. If it isn't, a new driver has to be 
developed.

No, you cannot use soc-camera with Leopard Board. Its camera interface 
might be supported by some other driver, but I'm not sure about that.

Don't think there's anything that can be done with any kernel apart from 
the current -next, i.e. the forthcoming 3.10.

The only possibility I see is to use a current kernel, adapt an existing 
or write a new camera sensor driver for mt9v034 and use it with the 
appropriate SoC camera interface driver.
