OK, I'll confess I'm still not 100% sold on this part.  Can I repeat
the questions I raised before?

 - Is the soc_camera mode necessary?  Is there something you're trying
   to do that can't be done without it?  Or, at least, does it add
   sufficient benefit to be worth this work?  It would be nice if the
   reasoning behind this change were put into the changelog.

 - If the soc_camera change is deemed to be worthwhile, is there
   anything preventing you from doing it 100% so it's the only mode
   used?

The split as you've done it here is an improvement over what came
before, but it still results in a lot of duplicated code; it also adds
a *lot* of symbols to the global namespace.  If this is really the only
way then we'll find a way to make it work, but I'd like to be sure that
we can't do something better.

Thanks,

jon
