This extensive series restructures CAMSS around the idea of lines and
outputs more closely matching the concepts in the camera hardware.

To begin with some bug fixing and some dependencies on the OPE series are
pulled in.

Following that a series of changes to enable the IFE hardware is introduced
for VFE780.

Supported in this drop:

- YUV output on the pix path
YUV downscale 16 and downscale 4 work on a staging branch
but with this series at 60 patches I've not included that.

- Stats output
Bayer histogram only

How many stats are intended to be brought out this way ?
Consider that scene in The Terminator when the guy in the gun
store.

Gun store owner: "So which will it be"
The Terminator: "All"

More seriously once this series lands then it will be possible to bring
out stats for Agatti mitigating the need for calculating stats in
software.

- Params application
AEC Bayer hist params

Again there are no limits envisaged on which params are to be enabled.

"All"

- Testing on HDK sm8650

There is a repo to test this stuff out:

For the record sending 74 patches to the mailing list is anti-social.

Next time why not try for the hat-trick and make it 300 ?

Feedback to self is break this up and squash this down NAK.
