[PATCH 3/3] media: i2c: ov9282: add strobe_timeout v4l2 control

From: Richard Leitner
Date: Mon Mar 03 2025 - 17:59:26 EST


Add V4L2_CID_FLASH_TIMEOUT support using the "strobe_frame_span"
feature of the sensor. This is implemented by transforming the given µs
value by an interpolated formula to a "span step width" value and
writing it to register PWM_CTRL_25, PWM_CTRL_26, PWM_CTRL_27,
PWM_CTRL_28 (0x3925, 0x3926, 0x3927, 0x3928).

The maximum control value is set to the period of the current framerate.
This must be changed to a dynamic range as soon as this driver
implements the set_frame_interval() pad operation.

All register values are based on the OV9281 datasheet v1.53 (jan 2019)
and tested using an ov9281 VisionComponents module.
