I hope you change gspca_core to near line 3589:
case 0x307b:	/* Generic */
			spca50x->desc = LdlcVC302;
			spca50x->bridge = BRIDGE_ZC3XX;
			spca50x->sensor = SENSOR_OV7620;	//overwrite by the sensor detect routine
Of course seem here we have to detect the sensor seem we have a lot of case 
here :(
