This was discussed on irc, and both Sakari and Laurent didn't like having to add
a new ioctl.

After some discussion I came up with an alternative and I'd like to have some
feedback on that.

The key change is in struct v4l2_ext_controls where the __u32 ctrl_class field
is changed to:

	union {
		__u32 ctrl_class;
		__u32 which;
	};

And two new defines are added:

#define V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_CUR_VAL        0
#define V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_DEF_VAL        0x0f000000

The 'which' field tells you which controls are get/set/tried.

V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_CUR_VAL: the current value of the controls
V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_DEF_VAL: the default value of the controls
V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_*: the current value of the controls belonging to the specified class.
	Note: this is deprecated usage and is only there for backwards compatibility.
	Which is also why I don't think there is a need to add V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_
	aliases for these defines.

And in the future, if the 'request' patch series for per-frame configuration is
merged, we can specify the request ID here to get/set/try the controls values
of the specified request ID.

This can also be extended to things like 'WHICH_MIN_VAL/MAX_VAL' if we want to.

An attempt to set/try controls for WHICH_DEF_VAL will return -EACCES since
the default value is a read-only value that you cannot change.

Renaming 'ctrl_class' to 'which' makes this something that can be documented
without looking like a hack and it avoids having to make a new ioctl.

Comments are welcome!

Regards,

	Hans
