Sigh.  As far as I can tell, that bug was introduced by
75e2bdad8901a0b599e01a96229be922eef1e488 (ov7670: allow configuration
of image size, clock speed, and I/O method) by Daniel Drake in 2.6.37.
It's not only wrong, it could conceivably be a security issue - index
is unchecked straight from user space.

Say the word and I'll package up a patch.  Otherwise please feel free
to add my Acked-by to your own change, with a cc to stable@.  

Thanks for catching this,

jon
