[RFC,00/11] GMSL: Initial RDACM21 support

Message

Hello Renesas multimedia,
   this series provides an initial support for RDACM21 camera modules,
which like the RDACM20 includes a MAX9271 serializer together with an OV490 ISP
chip and an OV10640 imager.

The series is based on the latest development from Kieran (gmsl/dev tag on
Kieran's kernel.org remote).

The series includes
- 4 fixes to be applied on top of Kieran's branch. Almost all of them have been
  reported by the dt schema validator.
- 05/11 which converts the proposed RDACM20 bindings to yaml
- 06/11 which breaks out MAX9271 handling from RDACM20 driver
- 07->09 which modified the max9286 driver to support remote communications
  with RDACM21 as well as RDACM20
- 10/11 which is an initial attempt to verify communication with RDACM21 by
  reading the ISP chip ID.
  At this stage, I augmented the RDACM20 driver to support both RDACM20 and 21.
  This defeats the purpose of 06/11 but I'm not sure which direction is better
  here, hence the RFC and the request for feedback.
  One driver per camera module, or a single driver with multiple compatibles?
  Please note that, as per RDACM20, the initial support for video capture
  operations will be limited to 1 resolution and one format, as the ISP+imager
  are configured by reading an on-chip EEPROM.
- Finally, enable RDACM21 in the Eagle DTS to test the example.

I'm very much interested in feedbacks on how to advance development for the
RDACM21 module.

Thanks
