Bug Description

The 'official' caspa/gumstix hd/4k cameras aren't quite working in ubuntu dekstop joule spin. It's very close, but there seems to be some v4l subdevices missing which then fail the camerahal. RefOS kernel produces 4 subdevices which aren't available in the Ubuntu joule kernel (4.4.0-1003-joule #8-Ubuntu):
/dev/v4l-subdev14
/dev/v4l-subdev10
/dev/v4l-subdev11
/dev/v4l-subdev12
/dev/v4l-subdev13

Bit more information in the conversation here:
https://communities.intel.com/message/484549#484549

The kernel patches are here:
https://github.com/01org/meta-intel-camera/blob/master/recipes-kernel/linux-yocto/linux-yocto_4.4.bbappend

I assume the latest ubuntu joule kernel must have added some support for these cameras as all these dozens of v4l devices/subdevices popped up, and the kernel can see the camera:
[dev] [mav@maverick-joule /var/tmp]$ v4l2-ctl --all -d /dev/video41
Driver Info (not using libv4l2):
Driver name : intel-ipu4-isys

Sorry, I cannot work out how to find out which patches have been applied to the ubuntu joule kernel.
