Hi Frank,

Thanks for the patch.

I don't object merging this with the ov8858 bindings as such but the
differences between the sensors should be taken into account. Something
like the text above should be added to those bindings, which now describe
the ov8858 only. Also, the number of lanes is probably different between
the two.

What about the regulators? The ov2659 doesn't control any right now, but
that's probably an oversight (and whatever regulators connected on the
platform used were hard-wired).

Overall, it might be easier to keep the two bindings separate rather than
have some number of ifs in the bindings.

You can drop clock-names as there's just a single clock (the same goes for
the driver naturally).
