Merge branch 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:

 - Some cleanups at V4L2 documentation

 - new drivers: ts2020 frontend, ov9650 sensor, s5c73m3 sensor,
   sh-mobile veu mem2mem driver, radio-ma901, davinci_vpfe staging
   driver

 - Lots of missing MAINTAINERS entries added

 - several em28xx driver improvements, including its conversion to
   videobuf2

 - several fixups on drivers to make them to better comply with the API

 - DVB core: add support for DVBv5 stats, allowing the implementation of
   statistics for new standards like ISDB

 - mb86a20s: add statistics to the driver

 - lots of new board additions, cleanups, and driver improvements.

<structfield>error_idx</structfield> is set to <structfield>count</structfield>.
The value is undefined if the ioctl returned 0 (success).</para>
<para>Before controls are read from/written to hardware a validation step
takes place: this checks if all controls in the list are valid controls,
if no attempt is made to write to a read-only control or read from a write-only
control, and any other up-front checks that can be done without accessing the
hardware. The exact validations done during this step are driver dependent
since some checks might require hardware access for some devices, thus making
it impossible to do those checks up-front. However, drivers should make a
best-effort to do as many up-front checks as possible.</para>
<para>This check is done to avoid leaving the hardware in an inconsistent state due
to easy-to-avoid problems. But it leads to another problem: the application needs to
know whether an error came from the validation step (meaning that the hardware
was not touched) or from an error during the actual reading from/writing to hardware.</para>
<para>The, in hindsight quite poor, solution for that is to set <structfield>error_idx</structfield>
to <structfield>count</structfield> if the validation failed. This has the
unfortunate side-effect that it is not possible to see which control failed the
validation. If the validation was successful and the error happened while
accessing the hardware, then <structfield>error_idx</structfield> is less than
<structfield>count</structfield> and only the controls up to
<structfield>error_idx-1</structfield> were read or written correctly, and the
state of the remaining controls is undefined.</para>
<para>Since <constant>VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS</constant> does not access hardware
there is also no need to handle the validation step in this special way,
so <structfield>error_idx</structfield> will just be set to the control that
failed the validation step instead of to <structfield>count</structfield>.
This means that if <constant>VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS</constant> fails with
<structfield>error_idx</structfield> set to <structfield>count</structfield>,
then you can call <constant>VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS</constant> to try to discover
the actual control that failed the validation step. Unfortunately, there
is no <constant>TRY</constant> equivalent for <constant>VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS</constant>.
