Some devices can implement a physical switch to disable the input of the
camera on demand. Think of it like an elegant privacy sticker.
    
The system can read the status of the privacy switch via a GPIO.

The ACPI table maps this GPIO to the USB device via _CRS and _DSD
descriptors, so the kernel can find it.

The userspace applications need to know if the privacy pin is enabled
or not. 

The obvious way to show it to userspace is via the V4L2_CID_PRIVACY control.

This patchset implement this functionality.
