[PATCH v4 3/4] media: uvcvideo: fix up missing AUTO_UPDATE on the OBSBOT Tiny 2

From: Michael Jordan

Date: Mon Sep 28 2026 - 17:51:37 EST


The OBSBOT Tiny 2 does not set AUTOUPDATE in GET_INFO for its pan/tilt
and zoom controls, so reads return the last value written. The camera
moves them on its own when tracking a subject, and sends no control
change events.

Add fixup entries for the three controls.
