Good question. It doesn't feel right to me to add it to device_caps: it
really doesn't mean anything there.

The whole point is to have device_caps only show the capabilities
of that device node. V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS is a capability of the whole
physical device, so I don't believe it should be set in device_caps.

I will update the docs, once we agree on this.
