Anyway, this code was generated from configuration ini files and perl 
script available from: https://gitorious.org/omap3camera/camera-firmware

Originally in Maemo above C structure is compiled into binary file and 
via request_firmware() loaded from userspace to kernel driver.

For me this sounds like a big overkill, so I included above reglist code 
direcly into et8ek8 kernel driver to avoid request_firmware() and 
separate userspace storage...

And for smia-sensor (front webcam) in that gitorious repository is also 
reglist structure. It is not needed? Can somebody investigate why it is 
not needed?
