Ok, you need to probe first the sensors, because the lack of support
for V4L2 async kAPI at the driver.

See, the way atomisp expects is that it will initialize the
subdevs at:

atomisp_subdev_probe() function at atomisp_v4l2.

I added a hacky logic there to avoid the need of probing drivers
manually. It makes atomisp driver to wait up to SUBDEV_WAIT_TIMEOUT_MAX_COUNT
for a sensor to be detected, and added a FIXME to remind that this requires
further changes.

Once the first sensor is detected, it waits for 5 * SUBDEV_WAIT_TIMEOUT
for it to finish probing, hoping that everything will be fine after
such time. If the second sensor registers on such time (on devices with
more than one sensor), everything will also be ok, but it seems that
the time there is not enough for the second sensor to register.

The right solution here would be, instead:

1. to return -EPROBE_DEFER, if not all sensors are detected. Some
care need to be taken doing that, though, in order to avoid
troubles re-initializing things;
2. to let the sensors register themselves, instead of relying on
atomisp driver for doing that.

Once the drivers got converted to register themselves as subdevices
without needing atomisp for doing that (nor the ancillary module
atomisp_gmin_platform), the right way would be to use the V4L2 async
framework, which was designed to ensure that all subdevs are there
during device's init time.

There's a catch, though: the main driver needs to know how many sensors
it will wait to be probed. Right now, the driver doesn't store or
gather this information directly.

Regards,
Mauro
