Thanks for the information.

I had a quick look at the code, and it seems the driver is closely tied to the 
Motorola EzX platform. It interfaces directly to the on-board camera, making 
it difficult to reuse as a generic UVC driver.

A proper generic UVC gadget driver should expose a V4L2 interface. I have no 
such code to release for the moment, but if you're not in a hurry you can 
expect code to be released in the (still undetermined) future.

Best regards,

Laurent Pinchart
