Ah, yes, there's a missing mute/unmute issue there. Instead of using your code,
I opted to duplicate part of ac97_set_ctrl code there. 

I opted to have a small duplicated code, but, IMO, it is now clearer to see why
we still need to call em28xx_audio_analog_set(). You will notice that I've
rearranged the place where I update volume and mute. The rationale is that 
v4l2_device_call_all() might eventually change a value for volume/mute.

Another reason is that, IMO, v4l2_device_call_all() should return values. In
the specific case of volume/mute, if the user tries to specify a value outside
the range, the -ERANGE should be returned.

I've already committed the patches at the tree. Please double-check.

Hans,

we need to fix the returned error value for v4l2_device_call_all(). I know that
this is an old issue that weren't changed by v4l dev/subdev conversion, but now
it is easier for us to fix. The idea here is to be sure that, if a sub-driver
with a proper handling for a function returns an error value, this would
be returned by v4l2_device_call_all(). Maybe we'll need to adjust some things
at the sub-drivers.



Cheers,
Mauro
