This RFC patch series adds the control handling framework and implements
it in ivtv and all subdev drivers used by ivtv.
It is a bare-bones implementation, so no sysfs or debugfs enhancements.
It is the fourth version of this framework, incorporating comments from
Laurent.
Changes compared to the second version (the third version was never posted):
- Replaced 'bridge driver' by 'V4L2 driver'.
- Added is_volatile and is_uninitialized flags (to control whether g_volatile_ctrl or
init should be called).
- Added is_volatile, is_uninitialized and is_private flags to v4l2_ctrl_config.
- If the name field in struct v4l2_ctrl_config is NULL, then assume it is a standard
control and fill in the defaults accordingly.
These last two changes together make it possible to make a const array of
struct v4l2_ctrl_config to create all controls.
- v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu now has a 'max' argument.
- v4l2_ctrl_new_std can no longer be used to create a standard menu control.
This should prevent confusion regarding step and skip_mask.
- v4l2_ctrl_active and v4l2_ctrl_grab set the flag atomically, so can be called
from anywhere.
- The init op can now return an error code.
- Extended the section on control initialization in the documentation.
- Added v4l2_ctrl_init_disable to give drivers the option to disable controls
that failed to initialize.
- Added two new proposals to the doc to extend the spec:
------ start excerpt -------------
3) Trying to set volatile inactive controls should result in -EACCESS.
4) Add a new flag to mark volatile controls. Any application that wants
to store the state of the controls can then skip volatile inactive controls.
Currently it is not possible to detect such controls.
------- end excerpt --------------
This version incorporates all comments I have received.

Hans
