Public bug reported:

I am testing an Intel MIPI camera on bare-metal Ubuntu. The camera is
detected by the Intel IPU7 driver, but streaming produces black frames
and the camera activity indicator never lights.

The camera is exposed as:

```text
Intel MIPI Camera
Sensor: OVTI02C1 / OV02C10
IPU: Intel Lunar Lake IPU7
Kernel: 7.0.0-1013-oem
```

The IPU7 firmware loads successfully:

```text
intel-ipu7 0000:00:05.0: firmware cpd file: intel/ipu/ipu7_fw.bin
intel-ipu7 0000:00:05.0: Found supported sensor OVTI02C1:00
intel-ipu7 0000:00:05.0: Connected 1 cameras
intel_ipu7_isys.isys: bind ov02c10 3-0036 nlanes is 2 port is 0
intel_ipu7_isys.isys: All sensor registration completed.
```

However, the camera GPIO setup fails:

```text
int3472-discrete INT3472:00: cannot find GPIO chip INTC10B5:00, deferring
int3472-discrete INT3472:00: GPIO type 0x02 unknown; the sensor may not work
```

The GPIO chip later appears in sysfs:

```text
gpiochip766: INTC10B5:00
```

But it is provided by:

```text
gpio_usbio.usbio-gpio
```

The camera stream then fails through the virtual camera relay:

```text
VIDIOC_STREAMON returned -1 (Link has been severed)
```

Before that failure, V4L2 returned correctly sized NV12 buffers, but
their contents were black. The camera indicator also remained off.

Relevant loaded modules:

```text
intel_ipu7
intel_ipu7_isys
intel_ipu7_psys
ipu_bridge
ov02c10
pinctrl_intel_platform
gpio_usbio
usbio
```

The camera node `video0` is the `v4l2loopback`/relay node named “Intel
MIPI Camera”; the physical IPU7 nodes are exposed separately under
`video1` onward and `media0`.

**Expected behavior**

The OV02C10 sensor should be powered and reset through the INT3472 GPIO
resources, and `video0` should deliver non-black frames while the camera
activity indicator is lit.

**Actual behavior**

The sensor is enumerated, but its GPIO resources are not configured. The
relay loses its upstream link, resulting in black frames or:

```text
VIDIOC_STREAMON: Link has been severed
```

Laptop model: `[insert model]`  
BIOS version: `[insert BIOS version]`

Could you confirm whether `INT3472` GPIO type `0x02` and the
`INTC10B5:00`/`gpio_usbio` provider are supported for this platform, and
whether a kernel or BIOS fix is available?
