Subject: [PATCH 2.6.0-test4] meye driver update

Hi,

In order to bring the 2.4 and 2.6 versions in sync, here is the
missing bit for the meye driver :)

Now I need to go read the sysfs docs for the XXth time and try to
understand why videodev suddenly decided 'meye' needs yet another
release callback... :(

Meanwhile, Linus, please apply.

Stelian.

MJPEG hardware grabbing is supported via a private API (see below).

+Hardware supported:
+-------------------
+
+This driver supports the 'second' version of the MotionEye camera :)
+
+The first version was connected directly on the video bus of the Neomagic
+video card and is unsupported.
+
+The second one, made by Kawasaki Steel is fully supported by this
+driver (PCI vendor/device is 0x136b/0xff01)
+
+The third one, present in recent (more or less last year) Picturebooks
+(C1M* models), is not supported. The manufacturer has given the specs
+to the developers under a NDA (which allows the develoment of a GPL
+driver however), but things are not moving very fast (see
+http://r-engine.sourceforge.net/) (PCI vendor/device is 0x10cf/0x2011).
