I'm not sure this is a limitation, it's more by design that the new
get_mbus_config() only reports the current configuration.

To be honest, compared to the other users of the old g_mbus_config()
this driver was the only one implementing the operation in this way,
maybe as it's the sole user of s_mbus_config() left out of staging ?

I would however consider supporting FORMAT_TRY even if I'm not
actually sure if fully makes sense. For the format operations
(get/set_format()) FORMAT_TRY is used for concurrent applications to
test a format without stepping on each other toes.
get|set_mbus_config() are kAPI only, and I'm not sure we need to stay
safe against concurrent configuration attempts... I'll think about
this a bit more. Seems a development that could go on top, right ?

Indeed I did :/

Good question, but I wonder if this shouldn't be an accepted
behaviour. The caller can provide all settings it want to allow the
callee to chose which one to apply. The operation returns what has
been actually applied by the callee, so that the caller can adjust
itself to what the callee chose.

Alternatively, it's up to the caller to specify its preference without
mutually exclusive options, and the callee tries to adjust to what has
been requested. Also in this case the operation returns what has
actually been applied, so the caller can later adjust if it could.

Seems like a small difference, but it might be good to exapnd the
operations description to describe this to avoid each single
implementer going in slightly different directions ?

I'm not sure I got what you mean 8)

Would if be enough to check for the return value of
ov6650_get_mbus_config() (or actually returning it directly at the end
of this function).
