Hi Edgar,

Thank you for the patch.

Running scripts/checkpatch.pl on the patch produces the following warning and 
errors.

WARNING: line over 80 characters

The last three should be fixed. The first one can sometimes be considered a 
matter of taste, but in this case it's easy to fix so we should address it 
too.

No need to initialize ret to 0.

So in case of failure you will return 0, and the caller will ignore the 
failure. This changes the behaviour of uvc_ctrl_fill_xu_info() which I don't 
think is a good idea. For uvc_ctrl_add_info(), on the other hand, ignoring 
errors is probably good, as otherwise we could introduce regressions with 
devices that don't implement GET_INFO properly on standard controls (the 
driver currently doesn't query information for standard controls so doesn't 
catch those devices).

No need for a blank line here.

There's no need to initialize the flags variable to 0.

All these are small issues. Let me try to address them, I'll send you an 
updated patch shortly.
