Thanks! This is indeed wrong and I'll fix it. I think it is sufficient to
apply this patch:
--- cafe_ccic.c.orig 2009-05-02 17:57:08.000000000 +0200
+++ cafe_ccic.c 2009-05-02 17:57:37.000000000 +0200

ret = __cafe_cam_reset(cam);
if (ret)
goto out;
+ chip.ident = V4L2_IDENT_NONE;
chip.match.type = V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_I2C_ADDR;
chip.match.addr = cam->sensor->addr;
ret = __cafe_cam_cmd(cam, VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_IDENT, &chip);
Can you confirm this? If it works, then I'll merge this patch and see if I
can get it into the 2.6.29 stable series.

Hans
