Description

I'm not sure if this is the right place to report this, but I have a Dell precision 5680, and recently updated from kernel 6.14.4 to 6.14.6. In 6.14.6 the camera still works, but is upside down. I couldn't find a way to fix it in software, but reverting to 6.14.4 works.

I believe the camera I have is `ov02c10 18-0036`.

This seems to be the same issue discussed [here](https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/ipu6-camera-used-to-work-in-f41-in-f42-camera-feed-is-upside-down/154289)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the camera orientation difference on the Dell Precision 5680 with kernel 6.14.4 and 6.14.6, using the reported ov02c10 18-0036 device. Read the linked Fedora discussion for related context, then trace the ipu6 driver changes between those kernel versions. Done means the camera image is correctly oriented on 6.14.6 without breaking the working behavior.
