Hi Greg,

thanks for applying/staging the commit for the stable release. For
kernel <= 5.11 the patch needs a small modification for the debug log.
See below. Should I send an adapted patch to stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to
replace this one?

Instead of commenting out the debug log, this line needs to be replaced by:

    uvc_trace(UVC_TRACE_VIDEO,
