Subject: [PATCH v2] media: docs: v4l2-controls: fix sentence rendered in a nonsense way
Date: Fri, 14 Jun 2019 17:14:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190614151429.15191-1-luca@lucaceresoli.net> (raw)

This sentence renders as:

> Since such compound controls need to expose more information about
> themselves than is possible with ioctls VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL,
> VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL and VIDIOC_QUERYMENU the VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> ioctl was added.

This does not make sense. Fix by providing an explicit link text. This
results in:

> Since such compound controls need to expose more information about
> themselves than is possible with VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL the
> VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL ioctl was added.
