Ok. I've used Seamonkey, I believe it uses the same editor. Some bugs were
unintroduced a few years ago, and since that I've mostly used a different
editor (and MUA) when replying to patches.

True.

Hmm. I just realised that this might be a bit broken ---
v4l2_fh_is_singular() should return the same value independently of where in
subdev's open() handler it is called.

But adding file handles to the list and checking how many there are of them
is not properly serialised, i.e. another process could change the list in
between. I'll try to submit a patch for that. No need to wait for that
though.

So please ignore my earlier request to check for v4l2_fh_is_singular() for
multiple times, it won't help. Once is enough, albeit more than that won't
hurt.
