Actually, "alvium-1500c" as a specific compatible string won't do. You
need the exact model in the compatible string, otherwise it won't be
possible for the driver to handle device-specific configuration (for
instance accessing registers of the camera sensor for fine-grained
configuration). I would thus recommend using "alliedvision,alvium-1500c"
and "alliedvision,alvium-1800c" as generic fallbacks, along compatible
strings that include the exact device model.
