Hi,

This series is the v8 series that attempts to support the Camera Subsystem
found on StarFive JH7110 SoC.

I don't see anything here about why this is in drivers/staging/media/
now and not just in drivers/media/.  What is preventing this to be put
into the correct place to start with?  What needs to be done to the code
to get it out of drivers/staging/media/ and who is going to do that
work?

The series does not contain 3A interface. According to Laurent's suggestion,
we put the driver in the staging directory first. In the next stage, we will
continue to submit the 3A interface in the way of incremental development,
and finally expect the code to be placed in the drivers/media/.

Can you please say that in the changelog text for when you are adding
the driver so that we know this?

thanks,

greg k-h
