Added in the end of my quilt series.

Laurent/David, any news on that?

Added both patches and folded them as requested, and added the remaining
patches after my review. The new tree is at:

http://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/experimental.git?a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/media_controller

The pending issues for merging it to the main devel branch are:
	- omap3isp private control description;
	- a chapter describing how *MBUS* and fourcc formats are related;
	- a description about how to lock between MBUS/fourcc get/set format;
	- a renaming patch to make directory name and file names consistent.

Thanks,
Mauro.
