[libcamera-devel] [PATCH 07/18] ipa: ipu3: tonemapping: Generate the LUT only on gamma change

[Jean-Michel Hautbois]

The Tonemapping algorithm calculates the gamma curve for every frame,
regardless of whether the gamma value has changed or not. This issue is
exasperated as we currently hardcode the gamma to a single value.

Optimise the implementation to only recalculate the look up table when
the gamma setting is changed, and store the gamma setting of the LUT
curve as part of the IPA context.
