Could be. The atomisp driver should be using V4L2 async kAPI, in
order to properly register the sensors as their init code finishes
to register.

Right now, the registration logic inside atomisp waits for the first
sensor to be available. So, everything works fine on devices with
just one sensor, like Asus T101, but devices with multiple sensors 
may end having just one of them registered.
