Hi Michael,

Thank you for the patch.

I'm sorry but I really dislike this. Not only does the patch fail to
ensure real synchronization, as the uvcg_video_pump() function still
runs asynchronously, it messes up the usage of the state field that now
tracks the state both from a host point of view (which it was doing so
far, updating the state based on callbacks from the UDC), and from a
gadget userspace point of view. This lacks clarity and is confusing.
Furthermore, the commit message doesn't even explain what issue is being
fixed here.

Greg, I think this series has been merged too soon :-(

You're now setting the state to UVC_STATE_STREAMING both here and in
uvc_v4l2_streamon(). That's confusing.
