[PATCH v4 6/7] media: core: export v4l2_translate_cmd

From: Ricardo Ribalda
Date: Tue Jul 01 2025 - 02:46:44 EST


video_translate_cmd() can be useful for drivers to convert between the
VIDIOC_*32 and VIDIOC_ defines. Let's export it.

Now that the function is exported, use this opportunity to rename the
function with the v4l2_ prefix, that is less ambiguous than video_

The VIDIOC_*32 defines are not accessible by the drivers, they live in
v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c.
