Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 02/10] media: v4l2-flash: add support for flash/strobe
 duration

Hi Richard,

Thank you for the patch.

I don't think this is a good idea, based on the reasoning explained in
the review of 01/10. If V4L2_CID_FLASH_DURATION is meant to indicate the
duration of the external flash/strobe pulse signal, it should be
implemented by the source of the signal, and for external strobe mode
only. The flash controller, which receives the flash/strobe pulse,
should implement the timeout control.
