Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for the patch.

Maybe updating this based on the comment I've just sent in the v2 thread
?

I hadn't noticed this before, but could you name this function
uvc_stream_dir() (and uvc_stream_to_dmadev() below) to avoid potential
namespace clashes ?

And a blank line here ?

Just minor comments, all the rest looks good and my Rb still applies.
