The Elgato Cam Link 4K HDMI video capture card reports to support three
different pixel formats, where the first format depends on the connected
HDMI device.

```
$ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --list-formats-ext
ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT
	Type: Video Capture

	[0]: 'NV12' (Y/CbCr 4:2:0)
		Size: Discrete 3840x2160
			Interval: Discrete 0.033s (29.970 fps)
	[1]: 'NV12' (Y/CbCr 4:2:0)
		Size: Discrete 3840x2160
			Interval: Discrete 0.033s (29.970 fps)
	[2]: 'YU12' (Planar YUV 4:2:0)
		Size: Discrete 3840x2160
			Interval: Discrete 0.033s (29.970 fps)
```

Changing the pixel format to anything besides the first pixel format
does not work:

```
$ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --try-fmt-video pixelformat=YU12
Format Video Capture:
	Width/Height      : 3840/2160
	Pixel Format      : 'NV12' (Y/CbCr 4:2:0)
	Field             : None
	Bytes per Line    : 3840
	Size Image        : 12441600
	Colorspace        : sRGB
	Transfer Function : Rec. 709
	YCbCr/HSV Encoding: Rec. 709
	Quantization      : Default (maps to Limited Range)
	Flags             :
```

User space applications like VLC might show an error message on the
terminal in that case:

```
libv4l2: error set_fmt gave us a different result than try_fmt!
```

Depending on the error handling of the user space applications, they
might display a distorted video, because they use the wrong pixel format
for decoding the stream.

The Elgato Cam Link 4K responds to the USB video probe
VS_PROBE_CONTROL/VS_COMMIT_CONTROL with a malformed data structure: The
second byte contains bFormatIndex (instead of being the second byte of
bmHint). The first byte is always zero. The third byte is always 1.

The firmware bug was reported to Elgato on 2020-12-01 and it was
forwarded by the support team to the developers as feature request.
There is no firmware update available since then. The latest firmware
for Elgato Cam Link 4K as of 2021-03-23 has MCU 20.02.19 and FPGA 67.

Therefore add a quirk to correct the malformed data structure.

The quirk was successfully tested with VLC, OBS, and Chromium using
different pixel formats (YUYV, NV12, YU12), resolutions (3840x2160,
1920x1080), and frame rates (29.970 and 59.940 fps).

I am sending this patch a fourth time since I got no response and the
last resend is over a month ago. This time I am including Linus Torvalds
in the hope to get it reviewed.

Hi Benjamin,

Thank you for the patch.

*sigh* :-( Same vendors are depressingly unable to perform even the most
basic conformance testing.

Thanks for all this analysis and bug reports.

The resend got to the top of my mailbox and I had time to review it
before it got burried again. Thanks for not giving up.

Given that this is likely not going to affect other devices (at least in
the same way), I'd rather test the USB VID:PID that add a quirk.
Something along the lines of

	if (usb_match_one_id(stream->dev->intf, USB_DEVICE(0x0fd9, 0x0066)) {

> +		__u8 corrected_format_index;
> +

> +			ctrl->bmHint, ctrl->bFormatIndex,
> +			ctrl->bFormatIndex, corrected_format_index);
> +		ctrl->bmHint = ctrl->bFormatIndex;

According to your description above, this will always be 1. Is the third
byte always 1 because the driver always sets bmHint to 1, or would it
have a different value if we set bmHint to something else ? In the first
case I'd hardcode ctrl->bmHint to 1 here.

Adam Goode suggested that the Game Capture HD 60 S+ (0fd9:006a) from the
same vendor is probably affected by the same bug. I cannot test this
assumption since I don't have this device (I am open for a loaner
device). An Internet search did not reveal bug reports in this regard.
Most search results referred to older versions (e.g. without + or
without S+) Do you still prefer to test the USB VID:PID?

I will test setting bmHint to something else than 1 to check. I will
report back then. Either follow your sugstion or update the comment.

Let's avoid long line

	static const struct usb_device_id elgato_cam_link_4k = {
		USB_DEVICE(0x0fd9, 0x0066)
	};

Similarly, I'd break this as

	if (usb_match_one_id(stream->dev->intf, &elgato_cam_link_4k) &&
	    ctrl->bmHint > 255) {

You can use u8 within the kernel.

I'd print bFormatIndex with %u as it's an index and thus more readable
as a decimal integer.

If you agree with those small changes, there's no need to resubmit, I
can fold them in when applying the patch.

I expect that at most a handful devices might need that special
handling. Only a few companies produce video grabbers that support 4K.
All the cheap ones only support FullHD. So I don't expect that the chip
and firmware in the Cam Link is used in many other devices.

I had a look at the device array in uvc_ctrl_prune_entity(). Since that
mechanism is used there and in other places, I am fine with using it.
You have probably more experience what do implement as quirk and what to
cover with if conditions. So let's follow your suggestion and in case we
find more affected devices, we can still change it to a quirk.
