Hi Igor,

Please look at Hans's response and comments to your v1 patch. v4l core
addresses the lifetime issues now and this driver could be updated to
use them instead if fixing the problems in this driver's resource
lifetime mgmt code.

Please follow his review comments to address the issue based on his 
suggestions.

thanks,
