When I think of it it seems a bit over-engineered to me now, it would
be better to give up the macro and simply pass struct v4l2_ctrl_handler *hdl.

Another second thought is that including such a wrapper in this patch
would make it too noisy if all potential users were to be updated.
A separate series would make more sense.
