Hi Russell,

I'm not familiar with IMX219, can you send me the source for the
imx219 subdev? I don't see it in 4.10-rc1.

I'm also having trouble finding a datasheet for it, but from what
I've read, it has a MIPI CSI-2 interface. It should work fine as long
as it presents a single source pad, registers asynchronously, and
sets its entity function to MEDIA_ENT_F_CAM_SENSOR.

Since I see it was registered asynchronously from the above, it
must have been added to the device tree. But given that there
is no /dev/media? node, the media driver is probably waiting for
another subdev to register, I don't know what that would be.

Can you send me the full patch on top of the v3 driver and I'll
try to find what's missing.

Edit: I see a subdev that is missing: the video mux. Did you enable
CONFIG_VIDEO_MULTIPLEXER?

Finally, what platform does this IMX219 sensor module plug into?
