[PATCH 1/6] media: dt-bindings: Document 'location' property

From: Jacopo Mondi <jacopo@jmondi.org>
Date: 2019-08-16 14:17:09
Also in: linux-media, lkml
Subsystem: media input infrastructure (v4l/dvb), open firmware and flattened device tree bindings, the rest · Maintainers: Mauro Carvalho Chehab, Rob Herring, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Conor Dooley, Linus Torvalds

Add the 'location' device property, used to specify the camera device
mounting position. The property is particularly meaningful for mobile
devices with a well defined usage orientation.
