[RFC PATCH] v4l: saa7134: fix multiple clients access (and oops)

From: Marcin Slusarz
Date: Sat Jun 07 2008 - 18:50:07 EST


While looking for a reason of multiple oopses in empress_querycap as reported
by kerneloops.org I noticed that only first open of device initializes
struct_file->private_data properly. (Closing the device was broken too).

So initialize private_date and free all resources on last close.
I think this change will fix oops in empress_querycap.
