As you might be aware there's no magic button to "turn AWB on". The
ISP enables the implementation of AWB algorithms that consumes the
statistics the ISP produces on the raw images it is fed with and
allows to program the color gains to realize colors balancing.

The implementation of such algorithms doesn't live in the driver but
rather in a separate component usually running in user space. With
libcamera we're creating a userspace camera stack where it is possible
to implement such algorithms, and the i.MX8MP is fairly well supported
by the "rkisp1" component.
https://git.libcamera.org/libcamera/libcamera.git/tree/src/libcamera/pipeline/rkisp1
https://git.libcamera.org/libcamera/libcamera.git/tree/src/ipa/rkisp1/algorithms

There's probably one single patch still out of tree in libcamera to flip
the switch and enable i.MX8MP support through the RkISP1 component.

If you're willing to give it a spin let me know and I can try
support you in testing it.
