media: pxa_camera: avoid duplicate s_power calls The open() operation for the pxa_camera driver always calls s_power() operation to put its subdevice sensor in normal operation mode, and the release() operation always call s_power() operation to put the subdevice in power saving mode. This requires the subdevice sensor driver to keep track of its power state in order to avoid putting the subdevice in power saving mode while the device is still opened by some users. Many subdevice drivers handle it by the boilerplate code that increments and decrements an internal counter in s_power() like below: /* * If the power count is modified from 0 to != 0 or from != 0 to 0, * update the power state. */ if (sensor->power_count == !on) { ret = ov5640_set_power(sensor, !!on); if (ret) goto out; } /* Update the power count. */ sensor->power_count += on ? 1 : -1; However, some subdevice drivers don't handle it and may cause a problem with the pxa_camera driver if the video device is opened by more than two users at the same time. Instead of propagating the boilerplate code for each subdevice driver that implement s_power, this introduces an trick that many V4L2 drivers are using with v4l2_fh_is_singular_file().
