Well, that's one reason. The other is that there never was a utility
to test this :-)

They are. The mc_nextgen_test, media-ctl and now v4l2-ctl/v4l2-compliance
all have their own list of functions that they know about and it's all
different. It's one of the things I want to fix.

Yes, they are. One limitation of the current API is that you cannot
represent correctly devices with multiple functions. This is planned for
a long time now, but nobody actually did the work. So for now just fill
in the primary function with a comment that in the future other functions
should be set as well.

Yes, we need a PROC_VIDEO_DEINTERLACER function.

The tee element would be a new PROC_VIDEO_SPLITTER function.

The other two would be scalers, but should add the VIDEO_PIXEL_ENC_CONV
function once it is possible to do so.

These are likely to be filled correctly already. I've just added a commit
to v4l2-compliance to make it easier to see what function is used:

	v4l2-compliance -m0 -v
