OK, so I discovered that these patches are for a driver added to linux-next
without it ever been cross-posted to linux-media.
To be polite, I think that's rather impolite.
They were, but got rejected due to the size :(
Mauro was cc:ed directly, he knew these were coming...
I can take care of the cleanup patches for now, you don't have to review
them if you don't want to.
Please do.
For the next time if the patches are too large: at least post a message with
a link to a repo for people to look at. I would like to know what's going
on in staging/media, especially since I will do a lot of the reviewing (at
least if it is a V4L2 driver) when they want to move it out of staging.
Same issue BTW with the bcm2835 driver. That too landed in staging without
ever being posted to the linux-media mailinglist. Size is no excuse for that
driver since it isn't that large.
I'll handle cleanup patches for the bcm2835 driver since it is now in our tree.

Hans
