Some notebooks have a button to disable the camera (not to be mistaken
with the mechanical cover). This is a standard GPIO linked to the
camera via the ACPI table.

4 years ago we added support for this button in UVC via the Privacy control.
This has two issues:
- If the camera has its own privacy control, it will be masked
- We need to power-up the camera to read the privacy control gpio.

We tried to fix the power-up issues implementing "granular power
saving" but it has been more complicated than anticipated....

Last year, we proposed a patchset to implement the privacy gpio as a
subdevice https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/20230111-uvc_privacy_subdev-v1-0-f859ac9a01e3@chromium.org/

I think it is a pretty clean solution and makes sense to use a
subdevice for something that is a sub device of the camera :).

This is an attempt to continue with that approach.

Tested on gimble:
