The Marvell camera core can support all three videobuf2 buffer modes, which
is slick, but it also requires that all three modes be built and present,
even though only one is likely to be used. This patch allows the supported
modes to be selected at configuration time, reducing the footprint of the
driver. Prior to this patch, the MMP camera driver looked like this:
mmp_camera 19092 0
videobuf2_core 15542 1 mmp_camera
videobuf2_dma_sg 3173 1 mmp_camera
videobuf2_dma_contig 2188 1 mmp_camera
videobuf2_vmalloc 1718 1 mmp_camera
videobuf2_memops 2100 3 videobuf2_dma_sg,videobuf2_dma_contig,videobuf2_vmalloc
Afterward, instead, with scatter/gather only configured:
mmp_camera 16021 0
videobuf2_core 15542 1 mmp_camera
videobuf2_dma_sg 3173 1 mmp_camera
videobuf2_memops 2100 1 videobuf2_dma_sg
The total goes from 43,813 bytes to 36,836.
The emphasis has been on simplicity and minimal #ifdef use rather than on
squeezing out every possible byte of code. For configuration, the driver
simply looks at which videobuf2 modes have been configured in and supports
them all; it's simplistic but should be good enough.
The cafe driver is set to support vmalloc and dma-contig; mmp supports only
dma-sg, since that's the only mode that really makes sense to use.

The core Marvell camera driver can now do scatter/gather DMA on controllers
which support that functionality.

The core driver can now operate in either vmalloc or dma-contig modes;
obviously the latter is preferable when it is supported. Default is
currently vmalloc on all platforms; load the module with buffer_mode=1 for
contiguous DMA mode.

This is a basic, naive conversion to the videobuf2 infrastructure, removing
a lot of code in the process. For now, we're using vmalloc, which is
suboptimal, but it does match what the cafe driver did before. In the cafe
case, it may have to stay that way just because memory is too tight to do
direct streaming; mmp-camera will be able to do better.

Now we have a camera working over the marvell cam controller core. It
works like the cafe driver and has all the same limitations, contiguous DMA
only being one of them. But it's a start.

This driver will soon become a family of drivers, so let's give it its own
place to live. This move requires putting ov7670.h into include/media, but
there are no code changes.
