FYI: using my private email when CC-ing me generally works better.
I often skip v4l2-related emails to my work address since I assume those
have either been CC-ed to my private email and/or linux-media.

I wondered why I never saw RFC v1/2, now I know :-)

Please document what the various syncs actually mean.

What on earth is the difference between "COMPOSITE_SYNC" and "SYNC_ON_COMPOSITE"?!

Why would this be here? It isn't Device Tree specific, the same defines can
be used without DT as well.

And that would also do away with the ugly V4L2_MBUS_VIDEO_INTERFACES_END
define. It's just asking for problems when some of the flags are defined
in one header, and some in another header.

I know it was discussed before, but I am uncomfortable with adding all these
different sync types when the only one used in tvp7002 is SYNC_ON_GREEN.

The only sync types I see in practice are Separate Sync (using separate H and V
sync signals), Embedded Sync (using SAV/EAV codes) and in very rare cases
Sync-on-Green. Sync-on-Luminance is I expect really identical to Sync-on-Green,
only instead of using RGB it uses YUV where Y maps to the Green pin.

Anyway, this needs more work I'm afraid.

Regards,

	Hans
