Checkpatch now has some checks that are only enabled with --strict.
That's because some maintainers end by accepting patches using
different criteria, because of historic reasons.
Also, please notice that checkpatch is just a tool that gives you
a hint about what's wrong, but doesn't spare manual review, as,
on some cases, we violate what's indicated there, as the real goal
of the coding style is to make the code simpler and easier to review.

If the goal was to protect some IP related to the sensors, I guess
this is not going to protect anything, as there are recent driver
submissions on linux-media for the ov5647 driver:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9472441/
There are also open source drivers for the Sony imx219 camera
floating around for android and chromeOS:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/factory-ryu-6486.14.B-chromeos-3.14/drivers/media/i2c/soc_camera/imx219.c
https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/bcm/+/android-bcm-tetra-3.10-lollipop-wear-release/drivers/media/video/imx219.c
Plus, there's a datasheet (with another driver) available at:
https://github.com/rellimmot/Sony-IMX219-Raspberry-Pi-V2-CMOS
So, you're not really protecting IP here.
If the goal is to protect some proprietary algorithm meant to enhance
the camera captured streams, doing things like (auto-focus, auto-white
adjustments, scaling, etc), and/or implementing codec encoders, you should,
instead, restructure such codecs as mem2mem V4L2 drivers. There are a bunch
of such codecs already for other SoC where such functions are implemented
on GPU.
If you add DMABUF capabilities and media controller to the capture
driver and to the mem2mem drivers, userspace can use the V4L2 APIs
to use those modules using the arrangements they need, without
performance impacts.
So, by obfuscating the code, you're not protecting anything. Just making
harder for RPi customers to use, as you're providing a driver that is
limited.

I didn't analyze the VCHI driver. As I said before, if you rewrite
the driver in a way that the Kernel can actually see the sensors
via an I2C interface, you probably can get rid of the VCHI interface
for the capture part.
You could take a look on the other mem2mem drivers and see if are
there some way to provide an interface for the GPU encoders in a
similar way to what those drivers do.

At the capture stage:
Assuming that the user wants to use different resolutions for video and
stills (for example, you're seeing a real time video, then you "click"
to capture a still image), you can create two buffer groups, one for
low-res video and another one for high-res image. When the button is
clicked, it will stop the low-res stream, set the parameters for the
high-res image and capture it.
For post-processing stage:
Switch the media pipeline via the media controller adding the post
processing codecs that will enhance the image.
We're discussing for a while (and there are patches floating around)
ways to improve it via the request API (with would allow different
configs to be ready to be use allowing to switch between those
settings in an atomic way, reducing the time to switch from different
configs).

IMHO, that's the best option if you want to give flexibility to
user apps. Those that don't want/need it, could just setup the
pipeline via media-ctl and use any V4L application to get images from
a single /dev/videoN devnode; those that want complex setups could use
multiple /dev/videoN nodes.

Well, at the RPi distro, the best would be to backport the gst patches
that fixed the bug instead, as it would affect other V4L2 hardware
connected via USB too.

The better would be to split those GPU encoders on a mem2mem driver.
This way, if all the userspace want is the raw images, they can
get it without passing though a GPU pipeline.
The big problem here is that the user doesn't really know what
formats are produced by the camera from those that are post-processed.
On applications that require low latency, that could have a big
impact. For example, if someone is using a RPi on a robot or on
a self-piloted drone, the lowest latency the better.

If you find a bug on any clients that we maintain (qv4l2, libv4l,
tvtime, xawtv), please submit us a patch. If this issue was fixed
when you noticed (in 2013, as you're saying below), then we wouldn't
need to concern about it nowadays ;)

Not sure if I fully understand what happens there... Does it add
alignment pads in the middle of the image, or just at the end of
the buffer? If such pads are added in the middle of the image, it
is actually violating the fourcc formats, as they're not meant to
have PADs inside it.

On analog TV, the horizontal resolution configures the sampling rate.
As the image is analog, it is possible to sample it on any interval.
Typical values are from 32 to 720. Both the luminance and chroma
A/D converters can be configured the same way, on most devices.
Also, most hardware have a scaler. The scaler does scaling for
the vertical resolution and for horizontal resolution. On most
hardware, the step for both scales is one. Typically, the output
format is either RGB or BGR.

I see. One additional reason why it would be good if the capture
driver could run independently from GPU. That way, only the
encoding codecs would have such restriction.

I guess the OV5647 doesn't support this resolution, even for still
images, as it is a 5Mpixel sensor.
