Ok.  The driver has already been broken, and the patch marking it BROKEN
does not necessarily need to be in this series.  I will drop the patch
from this series and send a separate patch based on media tree for that.

mx1_camera.c is not a concern any more.  However the series touches
mx2_camera.c and mx3_camera.c as well.  I just tested to merge the
series with linux-next.  Strangely, git does not detect the renaming
for automatically merging changes.

Do you have a stable branch for media patches that I can pull as
dependency?
