Havn't looked much at driverfs yet, but I'd use that instead of /proc,
especially for new stuff. Maybe we should have some class/video (or v4l
to avoid name clashes with the framebuffer video folks?) where all
video4linux drivers are listed? And drop /proc/video in favor of this?

Greg originally suggested using driverfs, and mentioned that eventually all
the V4L proc stuff will move over there. My only problem with using
driverfs now is that currently everything V4L is nestled in /proc/video, so
everybody knows where to go looking. If I'm off by myself and every one
else is in /proc/video I don't see that as a good thing.
