[GIT PULL FOR v3.5] Various fixes

[Hans Verkuil]

While I was cleaning up some older drivers I came across a few bugs that are
fixed here. The fixes are all trivial one-liners.

Regards,

The fixes for ivtv and cx18 look good to me.  Thanks Hans.

Thanks for the patches.

I'd put the setting of the min/max/step values for 64-bit controls to
v4l2_ctrl_new() instead for two reasons:

- All 64-bit controls require this for the time being, independent of the
purpose, at least until min/max/step are implemented for them and

- that's where part of the string control initialisation is done as well.

What do you think?

I think that in the long run we'll need to add capability to get
min/max/step for 64-bit controls also to user space, but the information
could be added to the controls in the kernel already earlier.

Kind regards,

I disagree :-)

v4l2_ctrl_fill is the only function at the moment that fills in these fields.
Doing it elsewhere just for that type is inconsistent.

Also, v4l2_ctrl_fill is also called by some older drivers that do not use the
control framework yet, so it really has to be done there.

Another matter is that ivtv-controls.c uses non-zero max and step values for
these 64 bit controls, that should be fixed as well.

It wouldn't be difficult to make min/max/def of type s64. At this moment I do
not see a compelling reason, but if we get more 64-bit integer controls that
do need this, then we will have to add it.

Ok; after taking another look there I agree with you.

Right. Feel free to add to that patch:

The controls the SMIA++ driver uses these for are also read-only and so 
set by the driver. Once we get controls that would benefit from 
min/max/step they should be added at the same time.
