In order to have unique entity names, we decided to change the name of the video devices with their functionality. This has resulted in some (all?) GUIs showing not useful names. This patchset reverts the original patch and introduces a new one to allow having different entity and vdev names. Since some distros have ported the reverted patch to their stable kernels, it would be great if we can get this sent asap, to avoid making more people angry ;). v2: - Add Documentation - Mark maybe unused variables as __maybe_unused - Add Suggested-by Ricardo Ribalda (4): Revert "media: uvcvideo: Set unique vdev name based in type" media: v4l2-dev.c: Allow driver-defined entity names media: Documentation/driver-api: Document entity name media: uvcvideo: Set unique entity name based in type Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-dev.rst | 4 ++++ drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_driver.c | 14 +++++++++++--- drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c | 4 +++- 3 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) -- 2.34.1.400.ga245620fadb-goog
