Steve,

Your absolutely right - my usage which set the input pad wasn't even
following your example (by accident) so your example is good and makes
sense.

Your explanation for the failure of linking vdic->ic_prp->ic_prpenc in
the previous message makes sense also.

I'm testing again with the tda1997x HDMI receiver which provides a
wide variety of input's to test IMX6 capture with (resolutions,
progressive vs interlaced, bt656 fmt vs yuvsmp bus format) and running
into some issues but I'll post them in a new thread.

This series looks good and does fix several interlaced capture issues.
