This becomes even worse. Fix the English text properly.

The same as per two above comments.

Ditto.

Still not good. Make the comments to lead the definitions and also fix

	/* CSI2-MIPI specific format: YUV data. */
	...
	/* YUV420 10-bit (Chroma Shifted Pixel Sampling) */
	ATOMISP_INPUT_FORMAT_YUV420_10_SHIFT,

As per above.

You need to fix _all_ of them, do not leave the job half done.

All the above must be fixed properly.

TL:DR; this patch needs much more work. Take your time, the driver
is not so small. OTOH you can take one part of it and do this there.
I dunno if fixing one header subfolder is good enough, we may start
from it, but again, fix all problems, don't leave it in semi-baked
state.
