I was just wondering if we will ever have a standard menu control with 
standard integer items. If that never happens, v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu() needs 
to either take a qmenu_int array, or reject integer menu controls completely. 
I would thus delay adding the V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_INTEGER_MENU check to the 
function as it wouldn't work anyway (or, alternatively, we would add the 
qmenu_int argument now).
