Subject: [PATCH 05/18] media: microchip-isc: Use channel averages for Grey World AWB

From: Balakrishnan Sambath <balakrishnan.s@...rochip.com>

Replace pixel counting with actual pixel intensity averages in Grey
World algorithm for more accurate white balance calculation.This
provides better color correction especially in mixed lighting
conditions.
