2021-08-04media: Documentation: media: Improve camera sensor documentationSakari Ailus1-94/+0
Modernise the documentation to make it more precise and update the use of pixel rate control and various other changes. In particular: - Use non-proportional font for file names, properties as well as controls. - The unit of the HBLANK control is pixels, not lines. - The unit of PIXEL_RATE control is pixels per second, not Hz. - Merge common requirements for CSI-2 and parallel busses. - Include all DT properties needed for assigned clocks. - Fix referencing the link rate control. - SMIA driver's new name is CCS driver. - The PIXEL_RATE control denotes pixel rate on the pixel array on camera sensors. Do not suggest it is used to tell the maximum pixel rate on the bus anymore. - Improve ReST syntax (plain struct and function names). - Remove the suggestion to use s_power() in receiver drivers. - Make MIPI website URL use HTTPS, add Wikipedia links to BT.601 and BT.656.

Remove extra "is" from sentence explaining V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE may be used to tell the pixel rate used by a transmitter driver. Also call V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE a control.

2020-09-01media: Documentation: media: Document how to write camera sensor driversSakari Ailus1-0/+2
While we have had some example drivers, there has been up to date no formal documentation on how camera sensor drivers should be written; what are the practices, why, and where they apply.

The media bus formats to be used on serial busses are documented but there was no reference from CSI-2 documentation. Add that now.

All those documents describe the media driver API. So, move them to the right place within the Kernel documentation. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
