Hello.

rcar_vin_set_fmt() defaults to  PAL when the subdevice's querystd() method call
fails (e.g. due to I2C error).  This doesn't work very well when a camera being
used  outputs NTSC which has different order of fields and resolution.  Let  us
stop  pretending and return the actual error (which would prevent video capture
on at least Renesas Henninger/Porter board where I2C seems particularly buggy).

Ouch, this should never be done like this.

   Too late. :-)

Instead the decision should be made using the last set std, never by querying.
So querystd should be replaced by g_std in the v4l2_subdev_call above.

Hm, then this code will stop working, as adv7180.c and ml86v7667.c we use don't support the g_std() method yet...

The only place querystd can be called is in the QUERYSTD ioctl, all other
ioctls should use the last set standard.

   OK, I'll have to fix all the drivers involved...
