Those three patches were part of an attempt to add definitions for some terms used at the media subsystem: https://lwn.net/Articles/732022/ On that time, the first patch generated heated discussions, on terms related to mc-centric/vdev-centric. The cern of the discussions were how to call the subdev API and the non-subdev API part of the video4linux API. I ended by being side-tracked by other things, and didn't have a chance to submit an updated version. Well, now I'm doing things differently: at the glossary.rst, I removed everything related to hardware control. So, it should contain only the terms that there aren't any divergences. So, I hope we can manage to merge it this time. After having this series merged, I'll address again the MC/vdev centric hardware control on a separate patchset, perhaps using a different approach together with the new glossary definitions related to it.
