I don't want to add code to the core to cater to exceptions.

Brrr. pvrusb2 exports controls (and a bunch of other things) to /sys allowing
scripts to get/set controls using cat and echo. I have no idea how to switch 
pvrusb2
to the control framework while still keeping this non-standard API.

I guess one of these days I will need to look at it, but I've been postponing it
for years now :-)

There are still a few other drivers that do not use the control framework:

saa7164, zoran, fsl-viu, omap_vout (although I hope that one can be removed),
usbvision and bcm2048 (that's a staging driver, so I can probably ignore that 
one).

pvrusb2 is actually fairly important: v4l2-subdev still has legacy ops for 
handling
controls and as long as pvrusb2 is not converted I cannot remove those ops.
