To add on top of that, actually, the reality is that without the MC
support in atmel-isc , some of our platforms do not work at all, because
the csi2dc driver which is in the middle of the pipeline, is a MC
driver. So it will not work without configuring it with MC anyway. It
used to work in a very preliminary version of the csi2dc driver which I
sent a few years ago, but that way of handling things was rejected.
Hence I changed the csi2dc to being full-MC driver (requested for new
drivers) and now I am completing the conversion for the whole pipeline.
We are using this MC-centric approach in production for our products to
be as close as possible to mainline, and backported it to our 5.15
internal releases, which people are using right now.
