 support

Hi Michael,

Apologies for completely missing your v1 post for this driver. It was
posted just before the ELCE and it looks like it just fell through the
cracks.

Anyway, I did a quick scan and found a few high-level things that need
to be addressed before I will start reviewing:

1) Please add the output of 'v4l2-compliance -s' to this cover letter
   (test with a valid source connected). Obviously any failures should
   be addressed, and if possible also all warnings.

2) Add entries for the new drivers to the MAINTAINERS file.

3) Since you added SPDX lines you can drop the actual license texts. It's
   one or the other, not both.

4) I see references to a firmware, but it appears to be a firmware that's
   loaded from an on-board eeprom or something, not an external firmware
   file. Correct? If I'm wrong and it is an external fw file, then where
   does it come from?

5) s_dv_timings is missing. That can't be right. Drivers shall *never*
   change timings automatically when they detect new timings. Instead
   they should send the SOURCE_CHANGE event to userspace, userspace will
   stop streaming, call QUERY_DV_TIMINGS and, if a valid signal was detected,
   call S_DV_TIMINGS with the new timings and restart streaming.

Regards,

	Hans
