[PATCH v3 1/4] media: uvcvideo: report AUTO_UPDATE controls as volatile

[Michael Jordan <jordan.mymail@gmail.com>]

uvcvideo re-reads controls flagged UVC_CTRL_FLAG_AUTO_UPDATE from the
device instead of trusting its cache, as the device may change their
value on its own. That is what V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_VOLATILE describes, but
the driver does not report it to userspace.

Report V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_VOLATILE for AUTO_UPDATE controls. Writes to a
volatile control are ignored unless V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_EXECUTE_ON_WRITE is
also set, and uvcvideo sends every write to the device, so also report
EXECUTE_ON_WRITE when the control is writable.
