The enum v4l2_exposure_auto_type definition is part of the linux
kernel ABI, and I don't expect them to change. Maybe new modes might
be added, but in that case you would have to change the above anyway.

v4l2Values comes from kernel and can only be a value from enum
v4l2_exposure_auto_type right ? The above check shouldn't be needed,
at least the < 0 part..

Break this lines as suggested by Kieran
