Subject: Re: [PATCH] v4l: Add source change event for colorimetry

Hi,

Once we have this event there is still open question how the client will
know the data buffer on which the new colorspace is valid/applied.

The options could be:
 * a new buffer flag and
 * some information in the v4l2_event structure.

Thoughts?
