Correct.
That's what the comment above here states...

/*
* External clock frequencies != 24MHz are only supported
* for non-OF systems.
*/

That's how it works: the driver expects to receive the PLL dividers
from platform data. It's ugly, I agree, but that's how it was. I do
not have time atm to poke around with PLL configuration, and I'm not
even sure I have the right documentation, so I made a 'default PLL
configuration' for 24MHz clock, copied from the platform data supplied
to the driver by the only user in mainline. In general, I would like
to have the driver calculate the PLL dividers based on the input clock
frequency, that should be supplied from DT. As this is not possible,
at the moment I made the driver only provide a PLL configuration for
24MHz, and that's the only clock the driver accepts.

+ priv->info = &mt9t112_default_pdata_24MHz;

Would you prefer I take a reference to an external clock, check it's
frequency and refuse it if != 24MHz?

By the way, I'm trying to run this driver with a camera module
connected to an ARM platform and so far I have not been able to
capture any image. The Ecovec I have (thanks Hans) has a camera module but the
cable is bad, so I can't test it on the platform the driver has
originally been developed on, but I assume on SH Ecovec it works properly.
Any confirmation from someone who has that board would be appreciate
though.

Thanks
