I see you need the control limits, not just the value itself.. This
might seems philosophical as a distinction, but CameraSensorInfo reports
information about the current configuration, so indeed having limits
there might not fit that well. Furthermore you have access to the control
limits from the pipeline, your solution might be the most correct one
at the moment.. My thinking was to find a direction where this
information will be made available to all IPA, without them having to
replicate this same implementation, but at the current time that's
probably the best we can do.
I'll review the rest of the series shortly then.
