Also note that the firmware file from the intel-aero only supports
hw_revision 2401a0_v21 as the filename implies. So, if someone have
Bay Trail (ISP2400) device to test, you need to get a firmware file (from
somewhere like Android installation/image as the initial commit of atomisp
mentions) made for version irci_stable_candrpv_0415_20150521_0458 and
hw_revision 2400b0_v21 then place it under /lib/firmware

Ah, glad to hear that!

It's great if we can eventually add atomisp support to the libcamera.
I think this is the easiest way to support generic apps (I mean, like
cheese). Some ipu3 cameras already work on cheese with libcamera.
I don't have any knowledge about userspace support though.
