From 1a969d9863a0c8890eb799ec710dda9701f10483 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Laurent Pinchart Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2009 03:12:26 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] V4L/DVB (13151): uvcvideo: Dismiss privileges when freeing video buffers Dismiss privileges on the file handle when calling VIDIOC_REQBUFS with a buffer count of 0. This allows applications to release the streaming permissions on the file handle without closing it.
