Do you mean 'validateSensorDriver()' returns -EINVAL ? In that case
CameraSensor::init() bails out before calling this method. Or have I
mis-understood your question ?

One thing I would add: reading a control might fail for other reason
than not being implemented in the driver. I should probably check for
        if (ctrl.empty())
nonetheless

We don't get here if validation fails if that's what you mean.

And in case reading the control fails for unrelated reasons, I would
fail instead of zeroing...

Good catch!

Thanks
