I think the patch is correct, however this goes a bit in the opposite
direction of making the driver freely configurable. IOW the more we
store in modes, the harder it will become to freely configure the
sensor. I know there are different opinions on how much this is
actually an issue, with valid arguments on both sides, but as I recall
freely configurable was a goal of Laurent's series, let me cc him
explicitly.

So if I got this right, another way of handling this would be to
bin_v = (bpp == 8 || (format->width == 640 && format->height = 480)
? IMX219_BINNING_X2_ANALOG : IMX219_BINNING_X2;
I'm not sure how much better this is, as then freely configure the
sensor at (random numbers) 720x480@...pp would not use analog binning
while it might be beneficial. Actually knowing what analog mode is how
it shuold be used would help, but if I recall correctly it wasn't
clear from documentation or not fully clarified by Sony ?
When it comes to scaling PIXEL_RATE, the above switch could be moved
to set_pad_format and store imx219->binning to be
1) used here
2) used in s_ctrl
like this patch does already.
Opinions ?
