Regression introduced by 4d7a2d6721a6380d4ffc26d81d2c8232fd0d2dfc.

Mine: http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/45707/ And the V4L maintainer's version (doesn't apply cleanly to mainline): http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-next.git;a=commit;h=0521a3915d9d491a07c4a043b10c4bf0c2982bd0 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-next.git;a=commit;h=3a7ec2c0d6fdda454d5588c03208ddfcbe16ac18
