This actually changes the logic, as, cammode is == -1 only if the
do {} while loop succeeds.

Also, calling cam_mode(ci, 0) will change cammode to 0. Btw, for
it to work, ci->mode should be initialized earlier.

So, this patch looks very wrong on my eyes, except if you found
a real bug on it.

Have you tested it on a real device? What bug does it fix?

Regards,
Mauro
