The implementation of VIDIOC_G/S/TRY_EXT_CTRLS in the control framework has to figure out which controls in the control list belong to the same cluster. Since controls belonging to the same cluster need to be handled as a unit, this is important information. It did that by going over the controls in the list and for each control that belonged to a multi-control cluster it would walk the remainder of the list to try and find controls that belong to that same cluster. This approach has two disadvantages: 1) it was a potentially quadratic algorithm (although highly unlikely that it would ever be that bad in practice). 2) it took place with the control handler's lock held. Since we want to make it possible in the future to change control values from interrupt context, doing a lot of work while holding a lock is not a good idea. In the new code the algorithm is no longer quadratic but linear in the number of controls in the list. Also, it now can be done beforehand. Another change that was made was to so the try and set at the same time. Before when S_TRY_EXT_CTRLS was called it would 'try' the controls first, and then it would 'set' them. The idea was that any 'try' errors would prevent the 'set' from happening, thus avoiding having partially set control lists. However, this caused more problems than it solved because between the 'try' and the 'set' changes might have happened, so it had to try a second time, and since actual controls with a try_ctrl op are very rare (and those that we have just adjust values and do not return an error), I've decided to drop that two-stage approach and just combine try and set.
