[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v2 3/6] libcamera: v4l2_device: Add support for META_CAPTURE devices

[Niklas Söderlund]

Hi Jacopo,

Thanks for your patch.

I would split this in two, one patch to merge the logic in open() and 
one adding META_CAPTURE support. I don't feel strongly about this so if 
you prefer this approach I'm fine with it.
