No worries, I'm no less busy anyway :-)

It could be useful for video output devices. I know of at least one UVC output
device (albeit not Linux-based), which I used to implement and test video
output in the UVC host driver. As the host driver supports video output
devices, supporting them in the gadget driver can be useful as well.

Good point. The spec isn't clear about this, so I'd rather keep these two
lines for now.

The only reason I see for uvc_video_enable(video, 0) to fail is if the video
endpoint hasn't been allocated. As the V4L2 device node is registered after
allocating the endpoint, I'm surprised to hear that you saw it failing. If you
can reproduce the problem I'd be curious to have more information.

Good catch, thank you.
