As on the previous series, the patches are available on my experimental
tree:
	http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/mchehab/experimental.git/log/?h=mc_next_gen

There's one additional patch there that removes the backlinks from G_TOPOLOGY
ioctl. I'll be posting it in separate at the ML.

I also added a new branch:
	http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/mchehab/experimental.git/log/?h=mc_next_gen_test

Based on the first one. It contains a hack for au0828 that exposes the tuner
also via subdev devnode, and reduces the number of output pads of the DVB
demux to just 5, as the default is too high to produce a .dot file that
would be useful. Of course, this patch should never leave my experimental
tree ;) 

There are a few other from Javier there meant to allow testing the omap3isp
on my Beaglebone (that doesn't have any sensor on it) and on his omap3
devices.

I added support at the mc_nextgen_test tool to produce Graphviz .dot
files. It is still experimental, but it is good enough to already produce
some useful graphs. The newest version is at:

	http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/mchehab/experimental-v4l-utils.git/log/?h=mc-next-gen

I added some graphs produced by it at:
