PATCH 1/1 media: fix truncated entity specification

When enumerating an entity, assign the entire entity specification instead of only the first two words. (This requires giving the specification union a name.)

So far, no driver actually uses more than two words, but this will be needed for ALSA entities.

Hi Clemens,

Thanks for the patch.

What about this (untested) simpler patch ?

I would have written it this way if ent->raw actually existed. (And please don't tell me you want to increase the size of struct media_entity by 172 bytes. :)

Oops, my bad :-)

Your patch looks good then, except that I would memcpy to u_ent.raw instead of u_ent.v4l. Would you also be ok with shortening specification to spec (or info) ?

Yes, go ahead.
