The V4L2 core changes should be on a separate patch. Btw, you'll also
need to patch documentation to reflect such changes. We're right now
moving from DocBook to ReST markup language. The patches for it are
right now on a separate topic branch (docs-next), to be merged for
Kernel 4.8 on the next merge window.

You should either base the patch on such branch or wait for it to be
merged back mainstream to write such documentation additions.
