Hi Sakari,

Thank you for the patch.

I'm not sure to follow you there. Is the issue that passing a string such as 
"SBGGR10" would match "SBGGR10_DPCM8" if it was listed before "SBGGR10" ? If 
that's the case I'd write the commit message as

Any character beyond the fist `length' characters in the mbus_formats strings
are ignored, causing incorrect matches if the format entry starts with but 
isn't equal to the passed format.

How about mbus_formats[i].name[length] == '\0' instead ? That should be more 
efficient.

I also wonder whether we shouldn't just get rid of the length argument and 
force the passed format string to be zero-terminated.
