The question here is not about how long the hard reset is applied, but whether or not the sensor's power-on sequence is followed.

So arguably the old code is fine. I'm not sure how do you reach that conclusion. Because it happens to work, presumably at least somewhere?

Currently it is > not. Right / agreed. The 2 points which I am trying to make are: 1. This is a pre-existing problem unrelated to this patch. So this should be fixed in a separate patch. 2. That separate patch should put a delay after requesting the GPIO to enforce that it is (logically) low (for "enable") for a minimum amount of time. Regards, Hans

The driver of OmniVision OV7251 expects "enable" pin instead of "reset". Remap "reset" to "enable" and update polarity.
