Thanks for this RFC. I do have a few suggestions to improve this, but I agree
with the basic design.

I'd call it VIDIOC_G_DEF_EXT_CTRLS. Since the default value is called default_value in QUERYCTRL,
I think it is more consistent to refer to the default value rather than the initial value.
And _G_ shows that you get this value.

This isn't quite right. First of all string types are pointers but are still handled by
the init(ctrl, 0, ptr) function (i.e. idx is 0, not the index of the character).

And secondly this can be simplified a lot by using ctrl->p_new: this has already been
allocated with the right size and is unused for a get operation, so it can be safely
used without having to allocate memory.

I think this is sufficient (untested!):

static int def_to_user(struct v4l2_ext_control *c, struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl)
{
	int idx;

	for (idx = 0; idx < ctrl->elems; idx++)
		ctrl->type_ops->init(ctrl, idx, ctrl->p_new);
	return ptr_to_user(c, ctrl, ctrl->p_new);
}

I wouldn't rename this function. Adding the bool is enough.

Two spaces after = instead of one.

I'd recommend using def_to_user instead of init (and make similar changes anywhere else
where you use init or initial).

Why add the ! before this check? Typo?
