2012-05-20[media] media: add support to gspca/pac7302.c for 093a:2627 (Genius FaceCam 300)Jozsef Marton
gspca_pac7302 module supports the webcam with usb id: 093a:2627. It is a Genius FaceCam 300. The module does not need any changes but listing the usb id along with a vertical flip flag. The included patch adds this to the module source.

2012-05-14[media] V4L: Add helper function for standard integer menu controlsSylwester Nawrocki
This patch adds v4l2_ctrl_new_int_menu() helper function which can be used in drivers for creating standard integer menu control with driver-specific menu item list. It is similar to v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu(), except it doesn't have a mask parameter and an additional qmenu parameter allows passing an array of signed 64-bit integers as the menu item list.

2012-05-14[media] v4l2-dev: make it possible to skip locking for selected ioctlsHans Verkuil
Using the V4L2 core lock is a very robust method that is usually very good at doing the right thing. But some drivers, particularly USB drivers, may want to prevent the core from taking the lock for specific ioctls, particularly buffer queuing ioctls. The reason is that certain commands like S_CTRL can take a long time to process over USB and all the time the core has the lock, preventing VIDIOC_DQBUF from proceeding, even though a frame may be ready in the queue. This introduces unwanted latency. Since the buffer queuing commands often have their own internal lock it is often not necessary to take the core lock. Drivers can now say that they don't want the core to take the lock for specific ioctls. As it is a specific opt-out it makes it clear to the reviewer that those ioctls will need more care when reviewing.
