Re: [PATCH v2 00/10] Support getting default values from any control

[Hans Verkuil]

This patch series looks good. I'll drop the saa7164 patches since I made a
patch series converting it to the control framework. Once Steve gives me the
Ack for that I can merge that series.

All I need to merge your series (minus the saa7164 patches) is the Ack from
Laurent for the uvc patch.

Regards,
