What version of the kernel is this patch against?

I can't find the direct line mapping for this in either the linux-media
tree or torvalds master branch (closest match at
https://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git/tree/drivers/media/i2c/ccs/ccs-core.c#n2754)

Ah: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210603071750.11594-1-thunder.leizhen@xxxxxxxxxx/
updated this, so I suspect this patch has been submitted against perhaps
a v5.14 kernel? It would be best to rebase and repost against the latest
branch of https://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git

This change looks good, but I think it might be better to re-indent the
minfo lines to match as well...

here as well of course.
