[PATCH v4 3/3] media: i2c: imx290: Check for availability in probe()

From: Benjamin Bara
Date: Tue Sep 03 2024 - 10:55:16 EST


From: Benjamin Bara <benjamin.bara@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, the V4L2 subdevice is also created when the device is not
available/connected. From userspace perspective, there is no visible
difference between a working and not-working subdevice (except when
trying it out).

This commit adds a simple preparation step, which includes an
availability check, before the subdev is initialized.

Changes since v3:
- thanks to the feedback of Dave, I decided to switch to a write instead
of a read for the availability check.
- instead of only writing the STANDBY register, re-use stop_streaming() to
ensure a proper state.
- reword commit message.
