zoran driver update

Hi Linus/all,

http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/driver-zoran/linux-zoran-driver.patch.gz
contains a patch that updates the current zoran driver (v4l/v4l2 driver for zr36057/zr36067-based MJPEG cards) in kernel 2.5.x to the newest stable version that we have. Patch is against 2.5.69.

Differences between old and new driver:
* this one actually compiles
* this one uses the new i2c stack
* this one supports video4linux2
* this one supports new cards (LML33R10 and Miro DC30/DC30+ - we already supported the LML33, Miro DC10/DC10+ and Iomega Buz)

It also adds some additional PCI IDs and I2C IDs that are used by the driver, updates documentation and adds this driver + me to the maintainer list.

The i2c changes have been reviewed by Greg KH and Frank Davis (april 7th/8th, 2003 - the 2.5.67 patch), the v4l part is in review by Gerd Knorr.

Could this please be applied?

Thanks,

Ronald

Please go read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for why just sending a link will not work :)

Gerd, want to pick up these patches?

thanks,

Someone also needs to make sure the merge keeps all the security fixes from the old driver.

Hey Alan,

thanks for the comment.

I've diff'ed the 'old' driver versus the kernel driver (2.4.16, I think), removing all formatting changes (someone ran indent over the kernel driver. ;-)). The only obvious change was that semaphores were added. The new driver has semaphores built-in, so that's taken care of. Besides that, I don't think there were any real differences. If I missed anything, please let me know. I'd like to add them to our CVS too, then.

Again, thanks!

Ronald

I'll try ...
