Since we set the ctrl to enable MSXU fmt metadata here, this means that
cameras which also support V4L2_META_FMT_D4XX will be switched to MSXU
metadata mode at probe() time.
So even if cameras exist which support both metadata formats, since we
switch to MSXU at probe() time, disabling V4L2_META_FMT_D4XX support,
the uvcvideo driver will only support 1 metadata fmt per camera.
Which is fine supporting more then 1 metadata fmt is not worth
the trouble IMHO.
This means that Laurent's remark on [PATCH v5 4/4]:
"I would prefer if you could instead add a metadata format field in the
uvc_device structure (I'd put it right after the info field, and while
at it you could move the quirks field to that section too). The metadata
format would be initialized from dev->info (when available) or set to
the UVC format, and overridden when the MSXU is detected."
is still relevant, which will also make patch 3/4 cleaner.
The idea is to (in patch 3/4):
1. Introduce a dev->meta_format which gets initialized from dev->info->meta_format
2. Keep the quirk and if the quirk is set override dev->meta_format to
V4L2_META_FMT_UVC_MSXU_1_5 thus still allowing testing for MSXU metadata on
cameras which lack the MSXU_CONTROL_METADATA control.
Doing things this way avoids the need for the complexity added to
uvc_meta_v4l2_try_format() / uvc_meta_v4l2_set_format() /
uvc_meta_v4l2_enum_format(). Instead the only changes necessary there now will
be replacing dev->info->meta_format with dev->meta_format.
