I'll try not to be that late for v3/v4 :-)

What bothers me a bit with a quirk is that it's supposed to be a generic
mechanism for bugs that affect a wide variety of devices. We could have
a small array of device match entries as in uvc_ctrl_prune_entity() if
you don't expect more than a handful of devices to be affected.
Otherwise, if you think a quirk is better, let's go for that, but let's
then name it with the vendor name (UVC_QUIRK_ELGATE_VIDEO_CONTROL or
similar).
