The device information structure is currently copied field by field in the uvc_device structure. As we only have two fields at the moment this isn't much of an issue, but it prevents easy addition of new info fields. Fix this by storing the uvc_device_info pointer in the uvc_device structure. As a result the uvc_device meta_format field can be removed. The quirks field, however, needs to stay as it can be modified through a module parameter. As not all device have an information structure, we declare a global "NULL" info instance that is used as a fallback when the driver_info is empty.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
