[PATCH 6.19 184/844] media: mt9m114: Avoid a reset low spike during probe()

From: Sasha Levin

[ Upstream commit 84359d0a5e3afce5e3e3b6562efadff690614d5b ]

mt9m114_probe() requests the reset GPIO in output low state:

sensor->reset = devm_gpiod_get_optional(dev, "reset", GPIOD_OUT_LOW);

and then almost immediately afterwards calls mt9m114_power_on() which does:

gpiod_set_value(sensor->reset, 1);
fsleep(duration);
gpiod_set_value(sensor->reset, 0);

which means that if the reset pin was high before this code runs that
it will very briefly be driven low because of passing GPIOD_OUT_LOW when
requesting the GPIO only to be driven high again possibly directly after
that. Such a very brief driving low of the reset pin may put the chip in
a confused state.

Request the GPIO in high (reset the chip) state instead to avoid this,
turning the initial gpiod_set_value() in mt9m114_power_on() into a no-op.
and the fsleep() ensures that it will stay high long enough to properly
reset the chip.
