I'm not so interested in the story but it's clear what you ask but in
short having one
sensor up to 5M pixel we can be sure where the reason is but make it
more pratical.
We have a parent clock that is the peripheral clock on clock
tree that run at 600Mhz. With a clock divider of 0 the driver work but
the acquisition
as problem on quality. Now the same sensor seems to work when the
logic is clocked
as half of the speed. If I remind in the right way the divider can be
only possible so
you can get pclk / (n + 1) without reparent to a different input.
Now I don't find any nice documentation that state that 600Mhz
is not supported but anyway, you suggest to do the same that is done
in fimc driver so
set there the rate there and offcourse x platform change like:
#define A64_CSI_FREQUENCY 600
ret = clk_set_rate(csk_core_clk, A64_CSI_FREQUENCY);
