Kevin,

Thanks for the reply.

I agree this is the right approach.

I have posted some queries, but didn't get a response. As I am moving
to a different project, there is not much I can do. At this point, I
have integrated the MT9T031 sensor in upstream with vpfe capture and would
like to push a patch to uptream. My approach is like this:-

Separate pc9543 part from rest of the camera capture code that can be used by 
anyone who wants to use this driver on davinci platforms.  Submit the rest of 
the driver to upstream with proper documentation that indicates the dependency. 
Once i2c mux support is available, re-work the driver (I guess mostly changing 
an adapter-id to match with the new bus id).

The right solution is i2c mux support as mentioned earlier. I will be 
spending 20% of my time next 3 months during which I might be able to
work for the right solution.
