cap->device_caps are the caps of the char device node that the filehandle
belongs to.
cap->capabilities is the union of the capabilities of all char device nodes
created by the driver + the V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS capability.

You mixed up device_caps and capabilities looking at this.
Quick history: device_caps is a relatively new addition. Before that it was never
clearly defined which capabilities the 'capabilities' field actually exposed: that
of the device node, or the capabilities of the device as a whole.
So by adding device_caps you now have both.
Originally when the V4L2 API was designed the intention was that you could use
video ioctls with vbi nodes and vice versa. The video and vbi device nodes were
basically aliases of one another. That also meant that the capabilities exposed by
each were identical since both device nodes could do the same things.
In practice though for most (and eventually all) drivers you could only do video
ioctls with a video node and vbi ioctls with a vbi node and the whole '/dev/vbi is
an alias of /dev/video' idea was just too complex. As a result the meaning of the
capabilities field became ambiguous which was solved by the addition of the
device_caps field.
