  - media: i2c: imx258: Change register settings for variants of the sensor
  - media: i2c: imx258: Make HFLIP and VFLIP controls writable

This adds a few more patches and drops one. The long exposure mode patch was
dropped due to the bug that Jacopo found. The powerdown and reset gpio patches
were added as that fixes support for the Pinephone Pro, without them the sensor
doesnt initialize correctly.

Tested on a Pinephone Pro by forcing 24 mhz clock and was able to access all 3
resolutions. The two lower resolutions had some artifacts but that is expected
as more changes are required to fix them for the Pinephone Pro specifically,
kept all registers the same as Dave's original patch since that works on
dedicated imx258 hardware and the artifacts are PPP specific so it shouldnt be
a regression.


v1

This is a set of patches for imx258 that allow it to work with alternate clock
frequencies, over either 2 or 4 lanes, and generally adding flexibility to the
driver.

Tested with an IMX258 module from Soho Enterprises that has a 24MHz oscillator.
Both 2 and 4 lane configurations work with correct link frequencies and pixel
rates.

Jacopo has tested on a PinePhone Pro which has an ~19.2MHz clock fed from the SoC,
He confirms that the two lower resolution modes work, but not the full res mode.
Comparing to the BSP it looks like they have some weird clock configuration in
the 4208x3120 mode (nominally 1224Mb/s/lane instead of 1267).
As it has never previously worked directly with the mainline driver this isn't a
regression but may indicate that there is a need for support of additional link
frequencies in the future.

The last patch that makes HFLIP and VFLIP configurable may be contentious as I've
retained the default configuration of inverted from the original driver. I know
this was discussed recently, but I can't recall the final outcome.

I am relying on someone from Intel testing this out, as correcting the cropping
and supporting flips has changed the Bayer order. Seeing as this is all above
board in V4L2 terms I really hope that the layers above it behave themselves.

Cheers
