      [media] media: Add stk1160 new driver (easycap replacement) · 9cb2173e
      Ezequiel García 提交于
      This driver adds support for stk1160 usb bridge as used in some
      video/audio usb capture devices.
      It is a complete rewrite of staging/media/easycap driver and
      it's meant as a replacement.
      
      As stk1160 allows communication with an ac97 codec chip, this
      driver allows to register a control-only sound card to allow the user
      to access ac97 controls.
      
      Two devices have been used for testing:
      * 1-cvbs video and 1-audio ac97 input,
      * 4-cvbs inputs
      Both of these devices reports with the same id [05e1:0408],
      so the driver tries to support a superset of the capabilities.
      
      By using keep_buffers module parameter it's possible to prevent
      the driver from releasing urb buffers when streaming is stopped.
      The usage of this parameter can avoid memory fragmentation that may
      cause the driver to stop working on low memory systems.
      A similar mechanism is implemented in em28xx driver (see commit 86d38d).
