I expect that at most a handful devices might need that special
handling. Only a few companies produce video grabbers that support 4K.
All the cheap ones only support FullHD. So I don't expect that the chip
and firmware in the Cam Link is used in many other devices.
I had a look at the device array in uvc_ctrl_prune_entity(). Since that
mechanism is used there and in other places, I am fine with using it.
You have probably more experience what do implement as quirk and what to
cover with if conditions. So let's follow your suggestion and in case we
find more affected devices, we can still change it to a quirk.
