Most of my comments appear to be ill informed, so I wouldn't mind if
you'd specify which updates you actually plan to do.

(A tell tale was that I didn't quote that line.)

It's hard typing with a brown paper bag for headware: I still have
trouble speaking Makefile, even after all these years, but I'm afraid
you're right.

Probably in some tree I'm not aware of. I only did:
    $ git cat-file blob v4.0-rc6:include/media/v4l2-dev.h | grep debug
	/* Internal device debug flags, not for use by drivers */
	int dev_debug;

and
    $ git cat-file blob next-20150402:include/media/v4l2-dev.h | grep debug
	/* Internal device debug flags, not for use by drivers */
	int dev_debug;

Which tree does debug come from?

Thanks,


Paul Bolle
