The following drivers under drivers/media/i2c: ov08x40.c, ov13858.c,
ov13b10.c, ov2680.c, ov2685.c, ov2740.c, ov4689.c, ov5670.c,
ov5675.c, ov5695.c, ov8856.c, ov9282.c and ov9734.c,
as well as various "atomisp" sensor drivers in drivers/staging, *all*
use register access helpers with the following function prototypes:
int ovxxxx_read_reg(struct ovxxxx_dev *sensor, u16 reg,
unsigned int len, u32 *val);
int ovxxxx_write_reg(struct ovxxxx_dev *sensor, u16 reg,
unsigned int len, u32 val);
To read/write registers on Omnivision OVxxxx image sensors wich expect
a 16 bit register address in big-endian format and which have 1-3 byte
wide registers, in big-endian format (for the higher width registers).
Add a new ov_16bit_addr_reg_helpers.h header file with static inline
versions of these register access helpers, so that this code duplication
can be removed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
