Subject: Re: [PATCH v5] [media] pci: Add tw5864 driver
Hi Andrey,
Just a few small comments, I'd say the next version should be ready for merging
in 4.9 (it's too late for 4.8).

That's too much kernel log spamming.
I propose that you turn those strings into a comment block at the start of the source
and here you just print:
dev_info(&pci_dev->dev, "Note: there are known video quality issues. For details\n");
dev_info(&pci_dev->dev, "see the comment in drivers/media/pci/tw5864/tw5864-core.c.\n");
That looks much better to me.

In this case set *std_arg to V4L2_STD_UNKNOWN and just return 0. As per the QUERYSTD spec.
