Hi guys,

I can't remember if I have review issues I have to address for this serie or
not. My mailer seems to tell no, but let's check again.

This serie is adding back the "power on" of the sensors through the generic
regulator API, and is my prequisite for pxa submitted changes, which were
formerly a "hook" in soc_camera_link structure, see:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg2350167.html

Cheers.
