The series went in in the media tree in late June and I now see it in
v4.19-rc2.

Sorry for the confusion.

The other soc_camera series which is pending for approval is the one
removing dependencies on the framework from some SH defconfigs:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/4/323

Mauro was exitant to take this one through the media tree, and he's
probably right SH maintainers should at least ack the series. So far,
I haven't heard from them.

I'll try to rebase it on latest version and re-send.

Thanks
