Re: [PATCH v4 1/6] media: i2c: ov5640: Remain in power down for DVP mode unless streaming

[Hugues FRUCHET <hugues.fruchet@st.com>]

Hi Prabhakar,

As discussed separately I would prefer to better understand issue before 
going to this patch.
Nevertheless I have some remarks in code in case we'll need it at the end.

For the time being this section was only referring to registers 
addresses and bit details was explained into a comment right before 
affectation, see OV5640_REG_IO_MIPI_CTRL00 for example.

I understand that more or less register OV5640_REG_SYS_CTRL0 (0x3008) 
has been partially removed from big init sequence: for power-up part, 
but power-dwn remains at very beginning of sequence.
We should completely remove 0x3008 from init sequence, including 
power-dwn, and introduce a new function ov5640_sw_powerdown(on/off) that 
should be called at the right place instead.
