As this is a camera connected using the Raspberry Pi connector - I have
been looking in this area too to add support for an IMX283.

It occured to me that the GPIO line on the RPi Camera Connector seems to
be named 'POWER_EN' ... and is usually responsible for enabling the
power to the regulators on the camera module...

It seems to me more 'clean/clear' to do something like the following:


/ {
/* 12 MHz Crystal on the camera module */
imx283_inclk_0: imx283-inclk-12m {
compatible = "fixed-clock";
#clock-cells = <0>;
status = "okay";
clock-frequency = <12000000>;
};

reg_imx283_0_3v3: regulator-imx283-0-vdd3v3 {
compatible = "regulator-fixed";
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_csi0_pwdn>;
regulator-min-microvolt = <3300000>;
regulator-max-microvolt = <3300000>;
regulator-name = "IMX283_0_POWER";
gpio = <&gpio2 11 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
vin-supply = <&reg_csi1_3v3>;
startup-delay-us = <300000>;
enable-active-high;
};
};


&i2c2 {
sensor@1a {
compatible = "sony,imx283";
reg = <0x1a>;

clocks = <&imx283_inclk_0>;
clock-names = "xclk";

rotation = <180>;
orientation = <0>;

status = "okay";

VANA-supply = <&reg_imx283_0_3v3>; /* Analog 2.8v */
VDIG-supply = <&reg_imx283_0_3v3>; /* Digital Core 1.05v */
VDDL-supply = <&reg_imx283_0_3v3>; /* IF 1.8v */

port {
imx283_0_ep: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&mipi_csi_0_in>;
clock-lanes = <0>;
data-lanes = <1 2 3 4>;
};
};
};
};


I wondered if that's more clear than using a 'reset' line which isn't
actually what the schematics show.

Indeed, that's the part that makes me think modelling the regulator part
rather than a reset gpio could potentially make sense, but I'm sure this
is one of those scenarios that someone is about to shoot down my idea
;-)
