    media: usbvision: deprecate driver · 8fb12ce2
    Hans Verkuil authored
    The driver is deprecated and scheduled for removal by the end
    of 2020. The reason is that this driver is for old and obsolete
    hardware, and it produces a continuous stream of syzbot errors due
    to poor code.
    
    In order to prevent removal the following actions would have to
    be taken:
    
    - clean up the code
    - convert to the vb2 framework
    - fix the disconnect and free-on-last-user handling (i.e., add
      a release callback for struct v4l2_device and rework the code
      to use that correctly).
