  * @s_ctrl:	Actually set the new control value. s_ctrl is compulsory. The
  *		ctrl->handler->lock is held when these ops are called, so no

  * @handler:	The handler that owns the control.
  * @cluster:	Point to start of cluster array.
  * @ncontrols:	Number of controls in cluster array.
  * @done:	Internal flag: set for each processed control.
  * @is_new:	Set when the user specified a new value for this control. It
  *		is also set when called from v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup. Drivers
  *		should never set this flag.
  * @is_private: If set, then this control is private to its handler and it
  *		will not be added to any other handlers. Drivers can set
  *		this flag.
  * @is_volatile: If set, then this control is volatile. This means that the
  *		control's current value cannot be cached and needs to be
  *		retrieved through the g_volatile_ctrl op. Drivers can set
  *		this flag.
  * @ops:	The control ops.
  * @id:	The control ID.
  * @name:	The control name.
  * @type:	The control type.
  * @minimum:	The control's minimum value.
  * @maximum:	The control's maximum value.
  * @default_value: The control's default value.
  * @step:	The control's step value for non-menu controls.
  * @menu_skip_mask: The control's skip mask for menu controls. This makes it
  *		easy to skip menu items that are not valid. If bit X is set,
  *		then menu item X is skipped. Of course, this only works for
  *		menus with <= 32 menu items. There are no menus that come
  *		close to that number, so this is OK. Should we ever need more,
  *		then this will have to be extended to a u64 or a bit array.
  * @qmenu:	A const char * array for all menu items. Array entries that are
  *		empty strings ("") correspond to non-existing menu items (this
  *		is in addition to the menu_skip_mask above). The last entry
  *		must be NULL.
  * @flags:	The control's flags.
  * @cur:	The control's current value.
  * @val:	The control's new s32 value.
  * @val64:	The control's new s64 value.
  * @string:	The control's new string value.
  * @priv:	The control's private pointer. For use by the driver. It is
  *		untouched by the control framework. Note that this pointer is
  *		not freed when the control is deleted. Should this be needed
  *		then a new internal bitfield can be added to tell the framework
  *		to free this pointer.
