Hi, Guennadi

Thanks for the review.

Correct, I should mention that the reset value (0) of cfg2 means the YUV 
mode in the commit message.
To use YUV mode we need to clear COL_SPACE (bit 15 of CFG2) and since 
the reset value is 0, so in the code, I didn't need do anything.

I understand your concern.
maybe a better solution is explicitly set the COL_SPACE (bit 15) to 0 
for the YUV formats. like:

#define ISI_CFG2_COL_SPACE_YUV        (0 << 15)

case MEDIA_BUS_FMT_YVYU8_2X8:
     cfg2 = ISI_CFG2_COL_SPACE_YUV | ISI_CFG2_YCC_SWAP_MODE_1;
     break;

And above modifications can be sent with RGB format support patch in future.

yes, this patch is needed. And in future i will add the RGB format settings.

That would be great, thank you very much.
