It seems there have never been any callers and the entire file
can just be removed, with the rest of that platform_data header
file moved to drivers/media/platform/s3c-camif/.
Yes, it seems that patch never made it to mainline:
https://git.linuxtv.org/snawrocki/media.git/commit/?h=testing/s3c-camif&id=355cbf835aff2aabf78390931cbbaa608af77967
I suppose it would still apply if anyone was interested, but I see your
point.
I doubt there are still users of camera on the s3c2440 boards
with current mainline kernels, if any at all, there are much
better HW alternatives right now.
I see two board files (and no DT) instantiate the camif device:
NexVision Nexcoder 2440 and the FriendlyARM mini2440.

Can you say whether the camif on those would actually work
at all without your patch? If not, we know that there are no
users of that driver and could either drop it completely or move
it to staging for a release or two.
