We can also add a flag in the driver-specific structure to tell if the device is powered or not. Delaying v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup() until .s_stream() seems easier though, but then maybe we should return early from .s_ctrl() until streaming is started, even if the device is powered on ? -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
