[PATCH 0/2] Add a GSPCA subdriver for the Microsoft Kinect sensor

From: Antonio Ospite

Hi,

This patchset adds support for using the Kinect[1] sensor device as a
regular Webcam or as a IR camera.
[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinect

The first patch adds a new Y10B pixelformat used to expose the raw IR
data the sensor can provide, the second patch adds a gspca subdriver for
the Kinect sensor.

There was some positive feedback about calling the new format Y10B from
Hans Verkuil, Mauro Carvalho Chehab and Guennadi Liakhovetski.

Any comment is appreciated.

Thanks,
Antonio
