I second that. Just replied the same thing on a comment from Sakari to
patch 2/2.

Yeah, we always used "CAMERA" to mean NOT_TUNER.

I don't see any sense on distinguishing IN and OUT for MC. I mean: should
we ever allow that any driver to have their inputs controlled via V4L2 API, 
and their outputs controlled via MC (or vice-versa)? I don't think so.

Either all device inputs/outputs are controlled via V4L2 or via MC. So,
let's call it just V4L2_CAP_MC.

Makes sense to me.

Yeah, we could do that, if V4L2_CAP_MC. if not, we can use the name
stored at video_device.

Thanks!
